About Outsourcing
Let's assume for a moment that this sudden wave of outsourcing is good for the American economy. Let's assume that the morons running the administration realized that there would be some problems with joblessness, like they claimed. Let's assume that they were aware of all the other problems like they claim they do. That they are really on top of the economy. (Talk about a mountain of "assumes" -- ass out of u and me")
If I give the admin these benefits (which I don't). Then I want to know the following:
1) If you knew people would be hurting so badly, why does the administration refuse to extend unemployment benefits until the economic boom hits;
2) If you know (yeah right) that the manufacturing sector will rebound, then why are you talking about classifying fast-food work as manufacturing jobs?;
3) If your crystal ball is so effective, why can't you tell us where and what these new jobs are going to be. Because so far, no one in corporate America from the CEO at Ford Motor Company to Bill Gates seems to have a clue as to where the new, high paying, solid health-care providing jobs are going to come from;
4)If your bead rattling and chicken bone economic forecasters are so in tune with the job situation -- HOW COME YOU'VE BEEN WRONG ON THE NUMBER OF JOBS THAT WILL BE CREATED. Last year you said 3.8 million jobs will be created -- we LOST private sector jobs.

I report. You decide.

2. Their response is....
but look at the jobs that "insourcing" has created...

My answer is:

1) Junior is still 2.5 million jobs in the red.

2) Junior didn't create "insourcing", so he gets zero credit for that shit.

I say: OUTSOURCE BUSH - AND CHENEY TOO!
