"And though tyranny, because it needs no consent, may successfully rule over foreign peoples, it can stay in power only if it destroys first of all the national institutions of its own people."

UK Police Outsourcing Calls to India

The UK seem to really be set in following in America's footsteps. They should see us as a method of failure, not improvement. UK police forces are now mulling over 200 companies, along with IBM, for the contracts to handle their large volume of calls. No one knows if all those people behind the phones now will ultimately lose their jobs, but we all know how that goes. If you call a police switchboard with a rather big problem, and you get someone in India, how is that going to make you feel?
