With all the good paying jobs going overseas how do they expect us to buy what they sell?
Isn't that a bit of overblown hyperbole? IBM has well over 100,000 high-paying jobs in the US, and they are adding more.

Others on this thread are suggesting boycotting IBM - wouldn't that be a foolish and shortsighted thing to do?


I already do boycott them.

I already do boycott them.

If large numbers of people followed your lead, it would result in the loss of perhaps tens of thousands of high-paying American jobs. IBM is a major component of the Dow Jones Industrial average. If a major boycott took hold, the impact would likely be felt in a sinking DJIA. So, it would appear that your goal is to hurt the American economy and job outlook. Why would you want to do such a thing?
