We didn't have the mass layoffs, mass exportation of jobs, mass import of unneeded H1b workers that we now see. If anyone can give us a concrete example of the situation improving, I'd sure like to see it. All we get are generalizations and platitudes.

You are exactly right, no one is providing information of millions of new jobs in america to take the place of those lost, no one is providing information of any new factories being built in america, because there arent any.

But this state hasn't figured out that it's GOT to get with the program and develop/encourage new technology jobs.

This NC technology worker is waiting for her technology job to land offshore at Covansys India. How about let's get with a program to encourage existing technology jobs to STAY HERE!

"It means Americans are buying things."

It means Americans are buying more than they are capable of selling. It means someone is "living on a credit card". It means the bill will come due one day soon, and Americans will have to pay up.

No jay, this IS a sum zero game; it's taking from future generations of Americans.
