IBM Offers To Move Laid Off Workers To India

A company should do what its in its best interest. If india can produce it cheaper... india should produce it. that is how a free market works.
It is our fed reserve and our government regulations who have made this place unfavorable for productive jobs.

Our government seems to think that they can move production off shore, and still retain the support positions - like engineering. It son't happen. Those jobs will follow the manufacturing.

But if we fill the place up with Westerners, it is only a matter of time before things improve.

Trickle down socionomics? Did I just make up a new catch phrase? LOL

I actually wouldn't mind this as an alternative solution to outsourcing. Employ more Americans while reducing the population over here.

I'd like to see Dell follow suit. I'm sick of dealing with Indians that can't speak english as a first language on their tech support lines.
