You get, for example, very bright programmers from India like more than one 
friend of mine who travel to the U.K. or the U.S. or some supposed gold-paved 
haven for developers, who then are virtually imprisoned at ridiculously low 
pay and long hours under threat of deportment.  Schmucks like the spammer here 
are evil exploiters and should be flensed.
