Oscars Slumdog Millionaire

It would be nice to see this film do well at the Oscars tonight. From what I've heard it raises awareness of India's stark difference between rich and poor.

But I hope it does not end there, I think the west has for too long been prepared to take the cheap labour which would not be so cheap if it had a government that had to maintain a standard of living for all. It would be nice to see out sourcers having this mandated on them by our goverments - it would not solve the whole problem but it would show at least some responsibility goes with globalisation.
