You're quite correct about one thing, though. We do get what we pay for and since we don't pay anything for your racist spew, that's what it's worth -- nothing.

I take issue with your accusation that I am a racist. You should get over your waspish know it all armchair attitude loonie. I have experienced terrible tech support from nations across South Asia. That is reality not racism. That is reality so don't criticize me when you know nothing about the background or topic. So shut the heck up.
