As for the outsourcing of jobs, do you really think corporations are going to want to keep jobs in the country, with a Democrat in office,

Well, it seems the outsourcing phenomon developed with a Republican president, A republican controlled house and a Republican controlled senate. It didn't happen when a Democrat was in office. Again, open your eyes; the Republicans are not what they pretend to be.

Wrong, outsourcing has been going on for several years now. My eyes are wide open. Outsourcing is largely a reaction to Big Labor and their continual extortion of corporations. With respect to IT jobs, they are being outsourced largely because there aren't enough Americans qualified to fill them. This is because our education system in this country has seen a steady decline in Math and Science aptitude. Whereas a country like India, has seen more it's nationals come to America and to go school here and excel in these areas. That is why these jobs are going to India. There are many who have this conspiracy theory that corporate America is out to get them. The truth is neither coroporate America or Big Labor, really have the country's best interests at heart. Big Labor thinks unqualified, unskilled, and uneducated laborers, should get more due than they have truly earned. Granted corporations are out for their interests, but I think that is a bit obvious. The big problem lies in the fact the generations following WWII, have not experienced any hard knocks on the domestic front and have developed this infantile attitude that they are entitled to everything without having to earn it. The fire needs to be lit underneath.
