Game Theory and Foreign Insourcing - Vox Popoli - (Very simple - you bring in 1 Indian - you will then lose your job to the next Indian etc etc - CL)

The concept of a pure meritocracy is inherently and uniquely post-WWII American. No other culture shares it, although the degree to which they ignore merit and are content to simply parasitize and pillage the existing capital and infrastucture varies widely from culture to culture.

It’s a uniquely stupid philosophy, since it is, by definition, a self-terminating one. All it takes, as we’ve learned, is one X to find a position in HR, in the immigration office, or on the board, and a port of entry has been established to bring in more X until enough influence has been brought in to start denying entry to everyone who is Not-X.

It’s a very simple exercise in game theory, and the extent to which the American executive class failed game theory can be seen in the percentage of U.S. CEOs and board members who are not American.
