"Get rid of government subsidies for offshore investment of US companies. OPIC is the first such program which should go but support of World Bank programs that subsidize the outflow of Capital would be another."

Thank you, harpseal.

All your points are excellent. Maybe I missed it but I will "add" that transfer of vital defense technology is often via H1B, etc. workers.

BTW, though I do not agree with the low opinion many have of Dr. Williams' column it's good to see a majority here would not agree with a very popular competitive neo-con site where it's all too common to blame "stupid and lazy" American workers. Some Indian posters there suggest Americans should work harder and smarter if they want their jobs back.

Boy, there are so many good posts here with links to facts -- not just BS like that other site.

Well for teh future we have 4. An immediate end to guest worker programs. If people wish to come to the USA to work and make a life let them immigrate according to the rules.

If there are not any H1B's here they will have a difficult time picking up technology to pass.

I actually have no idea what site you are talking about and since it is another site I would request you not promote it here on Free Republicas it would be discouteous to our host.

If you would like to Freep mail me the sites name I mught even look there just to see it.

That my friend is the Free Republic tradition.

I guess it is sort of like comparing Free Republic, the Rolls Royce of Conservative web sites to that Cheap East German car with the two cycle engine.
