How many are going to magically open up in India?
And where the hell are the politicians who have been whining "America is becoming irrelevant, waaaaaaah!" while all this offshoring is occurring?

And most Americans wouldn't mind being paid the wages the Indians and Chinese get... the trouble is, the ones who make the paychecks conveniently forget to lower the cost of living here in the States. Well, they make the prices as well as the wages for the labor (and labor creates all wealth) - so who's the dunce in the chair forgetting to drop the price of the cost of the goods they expect everybody to buy despite having no money?

I've no problem with profiteering. But who's going to be able to give them profits if nobody can pay for the goodies being made?

Also, I keep hearing from folks (especially on left-wing sites but there are plenty on the right-wing sites I agree with too) that the Indians don't like Bush and America. Why aren't they following up their prattle by boycotting the jobs coming in? (It can't work both ways...)
