> It is based on analysis. Please see: http://www.cato.org/blog/no-one-knows-how-long-legal-immigra.. http://www.cato.org/blog/no-one-knows-how-long-legal-immigra.... So, that analysis extrapolates 2 numbers from 2006 and 2008 years to timeframe of 20 years. Looks very strange for me. > But national diversity? Obviously, there is a strong correlation between national and cultural diversity, and since it is hard to set metrics for culture diversity, national diversity has been used.

Having been on the receiving end of this for nearly a decade now, knowing many people who have been waiting even longer, and having read about this issue for many years - it does not look strange to me. > Obviously, there is a strong correlation between national and cultural diversity, and since it is hard to set metrics for culture diversity, national diversity has been used. And I am pointing out instances where this heuristic does not apply. Kerala and Gujrat have as much cultural diversity as any two countries in Europe. So, back to the original question - why is the attitude "Well, it is after all just the Indians!" OK?

  > Having been on the receiving end of this for nearly a decade now Decade and 20-50 years from your initial statement and cited analysis are quite different timeframes. This is another example of you bringing non-sense statements in order to "win" discussion no matter what. > Kerala and Gujrat have as much cultural diversity as any two countries in Europe. I don't know this, and I don't trust your statements from obvious reasons. And obviously setting cups for individual India provinces will open many more doors for cheating for Indian consulting companies.

See, if you'd stop attributing malice to everything I say, you might be able to understand this better. I am waiting for close to a decade and I am still unsure when I will get it. People applying now, are looking at a 20-50 year prospect as explained in the article I posted. > I don't know this, and I don't trust your statements from obvious reasons. And obviously setting cups for individual India provinces will open many more doors for cheating for Indian consulting companies. Maybe Wikipedia might help you understand, if you don't trust me? What I gather is that you have some grudge against Indian consulting companies (who doesn't?!) and are unwilling to look past that. I think I don't have anything to add to this thread at this point, so I am giving this a rest. Have a good day!
