I have been to enough meetings at the Fortune 500 company I work for to know the glee and excitment that shines on the faces of VP's and Directors when the talk about cutting costs by relocating overseas.

What's patriotic about giving money to a bunch of bureaucrats in Washington D.C.?

Those VP's and Directors should be happy to save money on costs. It makes profits possible, which allows businesses to expand and employ greater numbers of people, as well as invest in future capital goods to further reduce costs and raise the standard of living. What does shoveling money into Washington D.C. accomplish?

I can assure you they favor contract worker from India and China over native born Americans. The reason being they can hire and fire them cheaply. These foriegn workers know if they don't work extremly long hours the result is being sent back to Pakistan or China. It is coercion, simply put.

It's not coercion, the Pakistanis and Chinese simply prefer working longer hours in America to living in their respective countries. They still appreciate the opportunities that exist here. Is your problem that you're not willing to work as hard? It's your choice...
