That way, there will be plenty of work, for Americans and immigrants alike.

First off, I think you misunderstand what outsourcing is.  If you're referring to jobs moving to countries outside of the US, that's not not outsourcing, that's offshoring.  There is also offshore outsourcing, but that's another kettle of fish entirely.  If you're going to repeatedly rant on a topic, you might want to take a minute and make sure you're actually using the right terms if you want to be taken seriously on any level.

Now that we have that settled, you might as well wish for it to rain Krugerrands, because offshoring is not going to be banned and you can't force companies to hire only American employees.  If that ever were to happen, you could expect entire companies to leave the US and then you would really have something to cry about. 

Finally, have you even bothered to look at the national unemployment figures?  Since 2003, unemployment rates have decreased each month, each year.  Offshoring doesn't appear to be the drastic problem you would have us all believe.  Be defiant if you want, but at least try and be intelligent about it.

No, they're lazy.  They might not be able to get their dream job, but there is ALWAYS work out there for people willing to do it.  There is no excuse for an able bodied person to only make $40/week.  NONE.

quote:

Tell all the IT workers that used to make $60,000/yr and are now flipping burgers that there isn't a problem.

Boo hoo, have a tissue. 

If an IT worker was making 60k and they could only get a job flipping burgers after the bust, then they might not have deserved that 60k job in the first place.  During the tech boom, far too many people ended up working tech jobs that had marginal skills at best because companies needed warm bodies more than they needed skilled workers.  Anyone who knew how to install a mousepad could get an IT job back then.  When the tech bust hit, guess who was the first to go.  So some of them had to take less "glamorous" jobs.  Tough titties.  In the words of the Honorable Judge Elihu Smails, "the world needs ditch diggers too."  If they want a better job, they need to increase their skill set and marketability just like everyone else on the planet.

There are still plenty of tech jobs out there.  Our company is looking to hire somewhere in the neighborhood of 400 people in the next 12-16 months, 3/4 of them will be hardcore tech positions.  We're interviewing people in my group every day for the 16 open positions here alone.  I don't expect we'll be hiring many burger flippers though, we're looking for rockstars.

quote:

Tell that to the auto manufacturers who lost their jobs when the positions were sent overseas.

Tell it to the executives that run those companies who are producing such a sub-standard product that they're losing millions of dollars in sales every year.  They are trying to save their asses after gorging themselves at the trough for too many years while the other countries' auto manufacturers started producing vastly superior products.  Be angry if you want, but at least direct that anger at the right people.

First, good luck banning a company from moving.  Second, Your CEO fable is irrelevant.  That restriction applies to new births, not existing families.  Even if it did, I'm sure allowances would be made for individuals who bring profitable companies into their country.

Oh my gosh. There are too few jobs for Americans as it is due to outsourcing. The last thing we need is more immigrants. What is the eventual goal, to keep bringing in immigrants until every American worker becomes unemployed because immigrants work cheaper?


The New Colossus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightening, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
 
"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door."

Do you feel that was only meant for your white, european ancestors?  Oh my gosh, indeed.

Ok, so a second-rate Poet writes that stuff in the 19th century and some people think it's Policy?
That poem is one person's observation of the times.
Gee, I guess nothing's changed in this country since 1883 eh?
In the 1880's we needed immigration, today we no longer do.
Oh, the owners of fast food restaurants need it so they can make a killing then the taxpayers get to pay the medical, dental, and other expenses for those fast food owners employees.
And for how long are those 7,000 Iraqis going to be our guests and how much are they going to cost us?
The U.S. Taxpayer gets screwed again it looks like.
You know Stef, I moved out of the Boston area after having grown up there because of things like the Kennedy crime family, stupid laws, and the nieve, uninformed world view that many in that area hold as well as for many other reasons.

And you are also wrong, the gov does require people to get a liscence to engage in bussiness.  In your list you mix corparations with regular bussiness, very sloppy thinking or intentionally trying to mislead.  And the people can not decide to impose "any regulation" they desire.  The Constitution specifically prohibits that.

If that's so could someone then tell me why we're bringing Iraqis to the U.S.???


I don't know? Maybe it has something to do with the USA fucking Iraq up so badly that there are 4,000,000 displaced persons there now? Or is that picture too big for you?

Texas Sheriffs Say Terrorists Entering US from Mexico -- 08/21/2006

They certainly come from all over the world and then come into the USA from Mexico.


This is why '' The war on terror '' is a complete and utter fallacy. And this why Americans and people in Britain need to wake up and smell the coffee. It's time to see the tricksters for exactly what they are.

If there was truly a war on terror and they were worried about dirty bombs, suit case nukes, biological agents or VX gas being smuggled into our country, the first thing to be accomplished by any prudent group of managers in charge of security and the greater welfare of the citizenry would be to tackle all external security measures and secure our borders. They've done absolutely nothing in this regard.

Take ten acquaintances that you know on the net, go into a chat room, pose the hypothetical above about protecting our citizenry, assign each person in the group a post in the hierarchy that's committed to the task at hand. Someone here then tell me that a consensus objective wouldn't be to close and maintain the security of our borders.

Then ask yourself why our government is not doing what you would do. Trust me….regardless of how much you’ve been brainwashed, it’s certainly not because they are smarter than you.

I've been fuming since the day of the invasion. The American and British establishments are rotten to the core. Nothing makes me more angry than people who rationalise away the truth about this war. I am never sure if they just don't want to face the truth or truely believe there was justification for the war. If those people who are responsible for this war get away with it, I hate to think of what other wars will follow. I think the whole socio-political systems of America and Britain must be corrupt and rotten for this war to have been allowed to happen. Both countries have lost their souls in this war.

Well stated I see no real war on terror, except what they are doing on airlines.
In fact, if you notice lately you only hear the rhetoric in regards to the Middle East.
I guess we have solved the war on terror here.

You still seem to believe that the USA is doing Iraq and the world a favour. Bush's strategy has increased terrorism and decreased security for everyone. Accepting 7,000 refugees is the very least the USA can do to compensate Iraqis for waging war in their country.

True. For the Federal Venue. But look at my example. Nothing says the State can't regulate as they see fit. ( Unless your State constitution has a prohibition. )

In your list you mix corparations with regular bussiness, very sloppy thinking or intentionally trying to mislead. And the people can not decide to impose "any regulation" they desire.

NO. YOU can do whatever you want to earn money, without filing for LLC, LLP, Corporate, or other special status. Just make sure to report your income property. You may or may not need 1099's. Consult your CPA. And you probably need to collect State Sales Tax. Make sure you do that, too. The only thing you miss out on is the limited liability, tax breaks, and regulation.

The feds don't count. Think about WHO do you go to register your corp with? That's right. The Secretary of State wherever that corp is registered in. The People of That State OWN your Artificial Legal Entity's ass.
