Outsourcing sucks, but it's capitalism. All too fast we're becoming a service industry nation and no longer producing anything.
I wish we could be a slightly modified version of isolationists without becoming blind to the rest of the world and at the same time drop the big brother stigma. Can't fix the world when shit is f'd at home.

The outsourcing trend is already starting to reverse. China has been found to be a pain in the ass to work with for many reasons. The cost benefit of dealing with the pain is not what it used to be. People over there are wanting to live a western lifestyle and wages and cost of living are increasing. Few companies are outsoursing to China and some are pulling operations back to the States. However, there are other areas of the world just waiting to take China's place. It started with Canada moved to Mexico, then China. Now businesses are looking to more remote areas of the world for the next low cost suppliers. My prediction, Africa. In the mean time, companies are staying closer to home, but it doesn't help when the "Detroit Three" deman that suppliers use low cost countries as resourses. Changing that philosophy will do alot to help the American economy.
The "Detroit Three" are forcing suppliers to move jobs over sea to save a few buck per vehicle. However, the people that purchase their product are Americans, unemployed Americans. Unemployed because there job is now in China and now these customers can't afford to buy the vehicles. This is cuasing the termoil in Detroit. These idiots are killing themselves by forcing their main source of income to be out of work.
Doesn't make sense to me.

Two party of system and the lobbiest that control our government. Can you elaborate? You actually want our government walking in lock step with no input from outside sources? Even if lobbyists are sneaky no good bastards walking around Washington with their hands out, at least they are some kind of outside voice from this great land. Besides not every lobbyist is sneeky or no good. Anyone can be a lobbyist including yourself. |

A sense of entitlement, and a lack of acceptance that there are repurcussions for your actions.
