Nope, I only flew jets for two decades, while managing to save enough money to not be worried about finding a job anytime soon.

Both front feet in the public trough for 21 years. You're part of the problem, not the solution.

Oh, PLEASE! While I sympathize with folks in IT (I am one) and want HB-1 and L-1 visas turned off now, it hardly is fair to say that a military man was skimming the public dollar! Look at it this way: While we all had good jobs making beaucoup cash when the times were hot, this guy was putting his life on the line so we all could enjoy our freedom and prosper in it.

Now, times are hard. Things will get better. 90 percent of businesses in this country will NOT outsource. Most people in this country (around 85%) work for small businesses with less than 500 employees. They won't outsource.

Here is a link to the most recent ITAA forecast on high tech job trends. You'll need Adobe to read it. Click here to read a synopsis in regular html.

Oh, that is real nice.

If you think those of us who risked our lives while you slept were only "in the public trough", then there is nothing much I can say to you.

When I read that, I thought of a former wingman of mine who died a horrible death 8 years ago defending your right to say such a stupid thing.

Whether you like it or not, you are welcome, you(expletive deleted).
