A lack of job security in the country is hardly the fault of

Open Source and or Linux. Or at the very least Linux/Open Source are the least of our problems what with companies like MS sending thousands of jobs over sea's. Then add to this the cost of providing employees benefits like heath care which includes drug coverage and "IF" I owned a business...shipping jobs over sea's would make a great deal of cents and dollars I might add.

If you want to protect American jobs...Then we must find a way to make Pharmacuticals and Health Care in general far more affordable and stop it's yearly increase which on average far out paces inflation. For instance I get my yearly raise (not all years for sometimes there are freezed due to economic preasure) During that time Drugs go up at minimum 10% higher than my raise does each and every year. Who can keep up with this!?!

Open Source/Linux are but bit player at best in this area. A scratch compaired to a internal bleeding.
