LOL

In the future I'll refrain from "ping"'ing him. I'll just "ding-dong".

"How dare he choose a cheaper provider?! Does he realize that he's driving prices down and thus the wages of the american worker!?"

For more information on what our corporates have been doing, take a look at "The condottieri of capitalism," by Vox Day (worldnetdaily).

Why undercut ourselves by helping to enlarge the labor pool for the runaway corporate officers who cooperate with each other?

I'm moving accounts to a provider that costs half of what earthlink costs. That provider and his employees run Unix systems to keep costs down while providing friendlier, more knowledgeable support, know what they're doing and are American all the way. They are outspokenly against outsourcing while making a nice profit. They provide local dialins from just about any locale. But then so are many smaller providers, recently.

The List (list.com) might be a good place for anyone to look.

And, BTW, it's many of our less loyal, less patriotic employers (officers of large corporations) who are pounding our Party to let the flood of immigrants in from the south with quickie, cheap work visas (while family visas continue to be much more time consuming and expensive). But you already knew that, didn't you.

...corporatism, socialism,...same hive in the long run!

Who's this provider, if you don't mind me asking?

What crap! Patriotism and loyalty have nothing to do with outsourcing, unless the country they outsource to is an enemy of the US. They are PATRIOTIC for driving our economy and it's ability to acquire more with less resources. God Bless profits.

Hey, which one is you? (Ethiopians in Brooklyn?)

[BrooklynGOP]

I don't get it. Must be some kind of a gay pick-up line.

[Texaggie79]

HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA You're an ethiopian!!!

So every company should fire all Americans and lower the costs to the consumers. All operations and production should be done by workers in other countries.

I am sure that products will be in great demand in America, when noone in America, who is an American citizen at least, has a job.

Also where will the tax revenue to support all the programs that the Democrats and Republicans won't cut come from?

The consumer are the ones who are demanding lower costs. People on this very thread bragged about getting better deals from other places. Since consumers are free to choose what they buy (made in america or not), its only fair that companies are free to choose were to spend their money as well. No?

The Bush recovery seems to be picking up speed.

Maybe the business model isn't sustainable.

I don't use earthlink though or benefit from them hiring people from other countries.

And I or anyone else is free to boycot them.

What are the people who worked for them supposed to do?

Nice payoff for working hard isn't it, getting thrown out on the street!

Why not throw the people at the top out on the same street?

[Xenalyte]

I think it's pronounced "Ethernopian." (That's what Stan and Kyle said.)

Sure. If you can find a better deal you should go for it.

Be glad they got the jobs they did when they had them. Better than nothing...
