I'm not going to debate outsourcing here. What I will say is that you admit as I do that blame lies on both sides, ours and theirs. The difference is that Kerry is saying he'll do something about it. Bush is saying it's good for us. Now, from an objective standpoint, take off your conservative cap for five seconds and pretend you have zero idea about politics. Now look at it. Dems sympathize and say they'll do something about it. Repubs say suck it up, losing your job is good for america. One would be an idiot not to look at the dems hard. What are you prepared to do now.
It's a bad issue for the GOP, no matter how you cut it. Outsourcing--is there a way to make it palatable?
That's not the message on this issue and not all outsourcing steals jobs. Companies will often hire locals in foreign countries to obtain resources in those countries, along with US citizens.
The Bush admin should do something about the mass outsourcing. The campaign needs to also point out that the government does not completely control companies, that's socialism. Socialism is of course the goal of this democrat party.
