i know how you feel mg33....
up here in canada, freetrade basically killed small towns across the country..
most factory jobs relocated to mexico...
my dad worked at one as an electrician for 30 years, and whammo...they upped and moved to mexico..just like that..
threw tons of folks in my home town out of a job..
it makes you think...
if all these jobs leave..how the hell do the companies expect us to keep buying there products.?
and notice that although their bottome line is increased because of low wages in other countries..the end consumer price is still the same..or most cases, increased?ye gods...
anyhow...its a problem that has affected canada big time..just as its affecting the states...
as for the aol stuff in india...you've only read the tip of the iceberg..
many many many major companies are relocating there call desks there..
and folks there are being trained to speak and answer questions in a north american accent...
read about it in wired...and while i don't begrudge folks in india trying to get a leg up, and all...
you know..getting better jobs and stuff..
it still sucks to see folks here out of work ...oh well...
i'm sure at some point bush will find a reason to invade them...
