\u201cYou guys are not living up to your side of the bargain,\u201d Immelt told the room full of India\u2019s top executives. \u201cThere is a trillion dollars of infrastructure investment in India and it\u2019s not happening.\u201d<\/p>\n
Very easy for him to say!<\/p>\n
Apart from that, \u201cYou guys are not living up to your side of the bargain,\u201d is a very crude way to talk to India\u2019s top industrialists, many of whom are probably more experienced and more educated than he is.<\/p>\n
Another quote: \u201cThere is no reason that our [US companies] infrastructure revenues should not be the same as in China\u2026Let\u2019s make the infrastructure happen.\u201d<\/p>\n
If Immelt wants to pull in GE revenues for say, power plants, can he compete on value for money with the Chinese? Not likely. That being the case, is India supposed to buy billion of dollars of equipment from the US just so that the H1-B visa fee can be brought from around\u00a0 $4,000 back to around $2,000, which will save India a piffling $200 million a year? Or so that the Democrats can stop howling about outsourcing because research found that it would get them votes?<\/p>\n
Come on, Mr. Immelt, India wasn\u2019t born yesterday.<\/p>\n
