No, the point isn't flailing about. I have stated that from the beginning and have been stating it for some time. There was falloff due to the bubble burst which put us into recession. There was falloff due to 9/11. And there was falloff due to you guys throwing people out of work for higher profits (offshoring). 9/11 we can't fix. The bubble burst we understand. But, a hand up to bin laden by disowning americans in the business sector for profit - that's treason WHETHER intended or not. And yes, your free trade junk is responsible. The tariffs need to be put back in place and our relationship with the WTO should be severed for the unconstitutional garbage it is.
OK it is hard to follow so again I ask for clarification is the above answer a YES, to the question listed here: "You are saying that outsourcing has caused our emplyoment numbers to worsen due to the dropping of tariffs with the NAFTA agreement correct?"
There are so many well paying IT jobs right now,just begging for Americans to take, that headhunters are NOW and have been swamped for over a year.It's a boom time and any American who can't get a good job today,is either not willing to move,or is incompetent.
