ZDNet has published the second part (part I) of its special report on the use of open source in governments around the world. This time it's looking at what's driving open source takeup in developing markets, with a particularly close look at projects and the driving forces behind them in China, India and Brazil.

Remember to also withdraw all your sweatshops from Asia.
Point taken, but the US has a very large prision population as well. If it were up to me much of this work would be "outsourced" to American prisons to offset some of the tax money spent to keep them going.
In my opinion, any prisioner not working at least an 8 hour day needs to be licking slop off their 8'x 8' cell room floor.

"I think its time as Americans we re-evaluate our dealing with the rest of the world. Its time to pull our troops back, stop food and economic aid, raise our import tariffs for consumer goods from all the ungrateful countries in the world. Then sit back crack a beer and watch the rest of the world fall to pieces."

Of course, that'll will cause prices of most products to skyrocket for you guys but i'm sure you'll be proud to pay 10x more for something that's truly made *in* America.
