>$25.00 are almost a dayly salary for a regular programmer down here, and trust me this is considered a really GOOD salary for the employers to give you
As an aside, and this is probably a very ignorant question, but it's all relevant to some degree, right? I make much, much more than that, but pay $1,100 per month for rent. If you make $25/day and only pay $150/month for rent, then it seems equitable. Maybe some economists can jump in here and explain how you can effectively compare disparat economies. Is there some sort of index that can be used?
Another aside - I see why it is attractive to companies to outsource develpment and services. Of course, the biggest problem is the language barrier. See Dell for recent difficulties in outsourcing their customer service and sales. I personally know 3 people who decided against purchasing a system from Dell because they couldn't get the saleperson to understand what they needed. If it's that difficult to purchase a system, imagine how tough it will be when you actually need technical support! Of course I think that Dell's corporate sales are the larger portion of their business and I just read that they will be keeping the call centers for that part of the service/sales in North America.
