Leaving home

hi everyone....so here's my first post of the day...
to leave or not to leave is the question here....thats right i am talking about going abroad after we complete our education..."the brain drain" as they call it is something that bothers me...everyday i look around and see so many smart people who are a lot better than me in doing things...better in maths..better in programming...better with people(ya thats a skill too!)...now my question is if the Indian brains are respected globally for their technical and mathematical genius...where's that developed self sufficient nation we have been looking for??why does every innovation and every invention that changes the world come from US??where's that iphone??where is that ipod touch??where are those google maps which are supposed to be in our phones?? the point is our education institutes produce people who are good at science great at maths but who really don't go out and think about what their education can give them...all of them including me think of big money early on in our lives and the best way to do it is "get out of here!!"....even i may do the same if my career calls for it...infact i had planned to leave once my engineering was over but everything changed when i talked to this french guy who was sitting next to me on a flight from Delhi to Goa....the first thing he told me was...."people are friendly here brother"....then he told me that he used to work in the US airport before....then i asked him this one critical question... "why do the people in united states treat people from India as inferior?" and he replied "because they never go back to their own country"...and i replied "yeah they don't" and that changed my decision...sometimes going abroad is a popularity issue...an issue of pride....when will we people stop being artificial??(i cant get the correct word for this...wait a minute...wannabe's???)....i see people who have lived in india forever and still have accents...its something that actually shows how much some of us crave to go to the states...India is one nation where development and poverty are at their peaks...the question is who will win the race first...and the answer lies with us.....
