Have you ever considered that people around the world can be as good 
programmers or even better then the ones on "first world" countries and 
they can do a good or even better job?
I'm not a freaking genious but I'm considered quite good on what I do 
and I'm working on a offshore job so to say. The company I work for as a 
remote developer is in Europe.
So, I'm sorry but I found your comment quite prejudiced and even offensive.
