With all the recent interest and chatter about where and how to create jobs, I have decided to share one of my favorite outspoken authors on outsourcing and America. [:D] Her name is Norma Sherry, and I have been reading and posting links to her outstanding articles on how we have allowed our country to be destroyed by widespread, unregulated outsourcing. Which I feel is one of the primary reasons we are economically fucked these days. What kind of country doesn't build up and take care of their own people FIRST? I personally became interested in the "outsourcing" of our country about 25 years ago. I was a young Mz.Mia back then, but old enough to see the shannigans going on in Detroit, with the airtraffic controllers, and the wide spread union busting tactics and rapidly growing anti-labor policies. I thought, wow, this can't be good! Where are all those people going to work, now that all these plants are closing and sending all these jobs overseas? These policies have continued for the past 30 years and many white collar jobs have been outsourced also! Damn it, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Facts and Figures on Outsourcing - LoveToKnow Jobs Outsourcing jobs leaves the American white-collar worker behind I have been outraged and against unbridled outsourining for over 25 years. Norma Sherry has written some excellent articles on outsourcing, worth reading. Here are a few articles I am kind enough to share with you all today. [;)] Bye, Bye Miss American Pie, is an outstanding article. My FAVORITE Norma Sherry article!! [;)][;)] Bye, Bye Miss American Pie This was written 7 years ago, and should be required reading for many. Where, Oh Where Have All The Jobs Gone?, should be read by those, that still haven't figured that one out yet! Where, Oh Where Have All The Jobs Gone? One of my top 5 favorites by Norma! This one is for my Republican friends that feel there are so many jobs to be had! Jobs, Jobs, Everywhere a Job and Not a Job to Find Great read! Finally I will leave you all a gift. Norma's website where all her marvelous articles can be found in one handy dandy place! Together Forever Changing, Philip J. Rappa Home Page I am willing to listen to anyone who can tell me how the rampant, unbridled and widespread outsourcing of our jobs and country for the past 30 years is benefiting us today in this economic crisis we are in? The deficit is growing, and will continue to grow, and it is going to affect our country for at least the next 100 years. There is no fucking end in sight! No end, no end, no damn end in sight! We are going to have more government programs coming our way than in the history of America! The good news is: there will be some 4 month census jobs coming, and maybe we will start buying more products from overseas, so that there will also be a lot more jobs in the strip malls. The fact that I lived and watched people allow our country to get in its current state, has been a real experience. The fact that we sat back and allowed this shit to happen, is still something that even I STILL DON'T BELIEVE. The chickens have certainly come home to roost. NOW, I even hear a lot of chatter about building plants and creating MORE manufacturing jobs! Why not start in Detroit, and use the empty plants that are still there?????? Now let's go back to trying to figure out how to CREATE 100,000 jobs a month for the next 2 years, and do something bout this thing! [;)] At this point, I don't care if we end up becoming a COMMUNIST or a SOCIALIST country, we deserve to become whatever we NEED to become. We allowed it to happen and we did it to ourselves. We will be supporting those that are underemployed and unemployed and their offspring for years to come. That is the American way. PEACE
