It's not about quality or racism, or education. It's about money. When corporations can pay an individual up to half of what they pay Americans, say bye-bye to the jobs. All sectors are currently suffering. The regular joe worker, whether he's blue collar or white collar is being farmed out. Who's gonna buy all those products when people don't have jobs. It's true unemployment is not rising, but, it's also true that NEW jobs are NOT being created. It still winds up being a net loss. Oh, and BTW, when things are made cheaper, does the price really go down? Hell no, that would cut into profits.
it's the investors that want the quick $$$... they are the ones to blame... do you put your money into 3% slow growth or 10% quick growth?

the paradigm of business has changed, and the workers around the world are suffering.
