What has happened to the world

A few situations from recent times:

1) In mumbai, Raj Thakre and MNS members are trying to raise a voice against all non-marathi people (This is an understatement). They are turning this so called 'aandolan' against non-marathi people into some kind of a genocide. They are complaining that non-marathi people are trying to usurp positions of power from marathi people.

2) In a certain lab, a stupid, junior, inexperienced person is getting a higher position than a talented and experience person may be because of internal politics.

3) People in US and other countries complain about people from india, china taking their jobs at call centers.

Is it surprising to find these situations logically absurd?

Are talent, ability, sincerity no longer looked upon as the criteria for selection on a job?

When a person who doesnt deserve something doesnt get it, is violence the only way to act on it?
Why cant someone jus think of it in a different way an say that probably i was not fit to do that job, or i lacked certain abilities required for it and say that i will improve and then try again..

what has happened to this world? or was it that way an i jus realized it?
