well,problem is,India and China have sold them on the idea that these "new markets' will make up for it, be it in movies or anything else..the fine print is that India and China plan on making their own crop of Billionaires,who will then cut them out of the markets. Bombay and Beijing know better than to allow the Billionaire to think they are above rules; no they will not bring baseball bats to a cricket game and insist the game be changed to suit them.
