That's not just racist and rude, it's also logically unsound. What do you think the percentage of odesk programmers in India is? 80% maybe? If you avoid people from that entire country, you're getting 1/5 of odesk. For your heuristic to make any sense, programmers on odesk from India would have to be 500% worse at programming than everyone else (relative to salary). In short, I think your ideas about this are just bonkers.
