[QUOTE="wags, post: 468885, member: 548116"] hey joshpoints, the stickler with outsourcing and kerry saying he can stop it is pretty much BS. Many many many of the companies that are outsourcing have become international corporations, meaning they have offices and buildings in other countries and that they aren't really buying labor overseas for their company in America: they have a good chunk of their company and selling market overseas and, in the process, save money by using as much cheap labor over there as they possibly can so they can sell competitevly in America. There really isn't anything can be done to prevent outsourcing. Even if you could, you can say goodbye to your 50$ dvd players and 100$ microwaves. The cost of products would skyrocket and everyone would feel the blow. The best you can hope for is that new jobs are created when our current jobs are outsourced - if they aren't created, then obviously our economy will shrink and people will buy less, creating disinterest in foreign products and possibly increasing job opportunities again. If your'e really worried, get a government job - those can't be outsourced. Like we'd let Eastern India deal with our taxes and census information lol. Besides, who really wants to be a telemarketer anyway? Did you know Allstate Insurance outsources to Ireland for tech support? That was the most pleasant tech support service I ever got [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
