RE: India's outsourcing bubble is bursting

--You shop at Wal-Mart for VALUE. Nobody stops you
from shopping at Neiman Marcus. ---

People don't shop at Walmart for VALUE they shop at
Walmart because that's all they can afford after their jobs
have been outsourced.

Do you really think anyone who can afford to only shop at
Neiman Marcus (which by the way is ridiculous since there
are only 54 of them in the country) is worried about paying
their bills? Not to mention most of the stuff in Neiman
Marcus is either from France, Italy or China. So that still
wouldn't be helping the VALUE of the products.

If you are going to make a point like that, then it should
have been something that made sense for instance... "If
you are tired of your jobs being outsourced then only buy
American. Don't deal with anyone that has a job that used
to be done in America that has been moved. Not only to
India, but anywhere else that slave wages are allowed. If
you call your credit card company or tech support and the
person who answers is from India or China or anywhere
else ask to speak to someone in America sooner or later
the amount of calls being rerouted back to the States will
force those companies to hire more people to handle them
and eventually stop outsourcing because they are now
paying for two people to do the same thing"

Not that this is ever going to happen, but at least the
arguement is better than "shop at Neiman Marcus instead
of Walmart".
