On patronizing community

I had interesting talk with a colleauge. He is applying green card for his mother in Pakistan. I advise him to hire a 'gora' lawyer. He told me he is hiring a fresh Pakistani-American graduate who has just started his practice (ABCD bachha). I was little shocked. I asked: "Why?"

He replied: "If we will not patronize our own kids and graduates who else will?'

I think - it make sense.

It makes sense. Economics and politics cannot be seperated and originally were never until very recently when the subject of Political Economy was divided into Political Science and Economics. Economic policies depend of political will and vice versa.

Good story.

sorry I meant 'depend on' instead of 'of'.

I really liked this concept. We got to help each other and get out of this "gora" mentality....
