Nightline Edwards on outsourcing
Very good interview with Edwards. Koppel tried to get him to
say they couldn't do anything about outsourcing and Edwards came
out strong about getting those jobs back to Ohio...

and from the look of the crowd they are really hurting.

He said he doesn't believe "outsourcing is good for America"
from an ecomomic theory standpoint and that's exactly right.

They now have some world leading economists backing that up.

1. Gee, real smart scientists finally noticed that removing a nation's jobs
Destroys the nation. Gosh golly, I bet you need a Ph.D to be so clever.

2. actually from the theory itself
I started reading a lot of economic books trying to figure out
what the hell was going on and discovered a big fat religion
created by the philosopher king to justify
robbing the coffers for King Midas.

I have some references on my site listed that truly prove and I mean
with "PhD" economic theory that outsourcing and "free trade" is not
a win-win and gives examples when it came be and when it cannot.

But even with "free trade" theory what is being presented as this
to push NAFTA, China PNTR, WTO and so on...isn't the theory itself.

then, I heard if you can believe this, a claim we must give away our
economic, jobs to the 3rd world so they won't blow us up..
i.e. a "tribute" to secure the nation.

I about lost it for this is economic destruction of the US and a form
of terrorism, economic terrorism.
