These out-sourced jobs would be excellent for the uneducated welfare bums who say they cant find work, so they must suck off of working taxpayers.

I say bring these low-paying, low-demand, jobs back and make the welfare people work at them.

Economists believe that a certain percentage of the workforce (maybe 1-2%) is so useless and unproductive, that it's cheaper for society to pay their unemployment benefits since they are actually a net drain on an employer who is unfortunate enough to give them a job. They actually decrease productivity and increase costs so much when they are working, that it's cheaper to keep them on the dole.

There's plenty of hamburgers to flip and toilets to clean; no need to bring these jobs back...
