This situation is a real shame. I cannot help but feel sorry for these men, caught up in an economy which no longer needs their talents. The earlier solution was to train them in computers but those jobs are also being "outsourced" to other countries.

The current economic climate may not need them, but America does and will. The problem is with the policies that encourage and enable corporations to outsource blue and now white collar jobs to foreign countries where billions of people are willing to work for near slave wages.
We have a huge Trade Deficit that is growing thanks to the current policies. Congress needs to hear from us, that we are watching them and will vote accordingly.
