Any govenmental job outsourced, should be eliminated. Any governmental person authorizing outsourcing or advocating it should be fired or impeached. I remember reading this along time ago, and marveling at the boodoggle it was concerning HIPA. Makes ya wonder what the Brownshirts at Homeland Security are really doing, besides wasting money on an infrastructure plan for the failed airport TSA, and encouraging tthe facade of Terror Alerts and preparedness while footing none of the addition cost doing such, and fostering hysteria. Capitolism at work Kids get used to it. The working man had the power and it was stolen from you by the corporations "AGAIN." They've let the Unions Break themselves in greed and power chasing vanity, the lobbyist have stolen the "American Dream" and handed it to the Real Super Class Citizens of the US, the Corporate Entity as a Body Politic. Outsourcing of the birthrites of millions of Americans, is mearly the beginning. Cry for the crappy "china" manufactured "goods" sold in WallyWorld, and every 99 cent store throughout the land. Each piece is a small sliver and slice of America being sold up the River. Cry for the "Rights" being stolen from Americans by the Supreme Courts, and Greedy Politicians looking to get to the troughs and slaver the milk of conspiracy, betrayal and averice. Cry for the Never Ending and Eroding legal System, where a State (Colorado) can flaunt the American Voting System and Eschew a popular vote to try and circumvent a legislative descision and abjugate it's legislative responsibilities while attempting to apeal to a media fed self righiousness, and claim moralality and fairness is at stake, when it is actually trying to snare an election and mire it in controversy and create another election debacle, like Florida was assumed to be. Cry for the Overbloated and Burdened Governmental Tit Festooned with Leeches, Contractors and Pork Chasing Beurocratic flotsam and Jetsom. Every Dollar wasted in Corporate Handouts, is a Nail in the American Economy and a Stake through the Heartland of the American People. The Great Depressions was obviously a lesson lost to the American Government.
I watched my Wifes Company get outsourced, my whole division at MS is now in India, or parts unknown, and just about every Tech Support, Banking, Cable, Bell South Issue I have needed help with has ended, with a pashti, or other foriegn sounding dialect, Thanking me for the call. WWHen someone works for 55 cents and hour it doesn'tmatter where the job went, as long as it went. If you Outsource you employment from the US, you should not be able to sell goods in the US, plain and simple.Any jobs Outsourced should be balanced by a levy of tariff, to compensate for the loss to the economy. People have forgotten that the "Bottom Line" is America as a Country Not the Dollar that is it's Currency. Outsourcing might be good Capitolism, but it is rotten Patriotism.
Anyways Sorry... I seemed to have wandered. That happens when you live in an Economically Depressed region of the US, that has Seen almost all of it's Millenary Production resources Outsourced, its Tech Sector Emaciated by Outsourcing and it's Manufacturing Base as well.
Neal Stephenson had it right in "SnowCrash" America is going to be known best for Pizza and Music, and become a blotted and disfunction quilt of Corporate Enclaves eating each other into oblivious abandon, while the "World" watches it merrily go down the path to distruction. Even Rome eventually fell.
