Is Bush's open support for the continued off-shoring of American
high-tech jobs to 2nd and 3rd world countries and example of Bush
putting the USA first?

It's not high-tech. What jobs are being lost, are jobs that Americans
don't want to do, and those jobs enrich our trading partners.


So all those Americans working in the tech support call centers like
Dell's, HP's, SBC, etc. really didn't want their jobs when they were
fired. Nope, they just volunteered to sacrifice their and their familes'
income, so that some Indian in Bangalore working for 1/4 - 1/5 the wages
could have a good life.

Take off your blinders. These days, the chances are that your credit
apps, health insurance, phone records, etc. are being seen and handled
off-shore.



If we have all the jobs, who are we going to export to?


If we give away all our jobs, how are we going to buy anything?




I drive by the VA every day, and pick up men who want to work for
a days wage. I never get any disabled volunteers. Standing on the
corner are 70 year old Mexicans, Chinese, and Cambodians. The
one-arm Vets just sneer at us. I picture them going back to the TV
set and sofa. Meanwhile my truck load of workers will each make
$80 tax free as long as I can keep the developers from pricing me
out of business with their zoning buddies... Never, in 30 years, has
a Vet come down the steps to work. Welfare whores I call them.


I see. So you are perfectly willing to violate the law and hire people
under the table, because you can work them for peanuts? My guess is you
don't ask them for work papers right...and you are knowingly hire
illegal aliens...while casting names on your country's disabled vets.

You, sir, are a sorry excuse for an American.
