Weekly I'm reading in the papers about how many jobs were "created" here by the efforts of BigBrother...last poll was 112,000 "new" jobs (http://www.usatoday.com/money/econom...rate-jan_x.htm).

So, does anyone else think this support for outsourcing goes directly against what 'they' say they're doing here at home?
Nope, in fact quite the opposite. Part of their initiative (as outlined in the State of the Union Address) is to provide training to workers affected by shifts in certain areas of the US/world labor market.
