i wouldn't call it "slavery"... but yes, if you speak of knowledge that can very well be imparted within the country to better the country itself, rather than give the expertise abroad for a cheaper rate, that may make sense. it is also true that when working abroad, life is more difficult than it is back home in india for the same amount of money - namely, you don't get the luxuries of maid servants, etc unless you're in the very elite class. life's hard - you work, come back and feed yourself, clean your place yourself, etc etc. whereas within ...(Answered by conspicuous)

It's evident that you are amazingly ignorant about Canada and Australia New Zealand. They do have important industries, and Canada has FAR more petroleum than the US does. In addition they have very high educational standards, technology standards, infrastructures, and sophisticated healthcare, public health and environmental standards. Yogi suggested that you check the CIA World Factbook. but I think you need to read a few books about the difference between the 1st world and 3rd world. Maybe take a course in Environmental Science, Economics or Economic Geography....(Answered by matt)
