Outsourcing

Tens of thousands of jobs are being sent overseas to countries where people will do the same work for a fraction of the pay. For the individual company it is a good choice of action. But everybody is doing it. That means that while companies are able to produce the same product for less, there are less people here in the United States with jobs. No jobs mean no income which means no money to buy the product. If no one buys the product, companies go out out of business. When companies go out of business, the industry starts to fail.

Our industry, one of the things that makes people of countries that don't have freedom like in America want to come here. The ability to run virtually any business you want. If we lose that, we lose our status as a world power.

I believe that outsourcing will be the downfall of the United States. I think it can be stopped if not reverced. All that might have to be done is make a law defining what percentage of jobs a company can have in another country. I doubt it will ever happen, but maybe. If it is not stopped the country will fail. And I'll just come out and say it, THATS BAD!
