Your last two posts indicate that you really don't have any idea about the work being offshored, these are not "button pushers" or people replaced by a "batch file".

Not true. I'm well aware that both manufacturing and engineering functions are moving offshore. The posts that I was referring to dealt with the case of a union guy who was being paid $18/hour for turning a wrench.
