losing tax breaks is a good move.

i do however, think that we CAN compete with the lesser wages in india, if we simply learn to deal with it as they have. it's the lazy people who expect it all on their plate for less that make this world loss its value.

Mac, this tells me that you don't have a clue! Have you ever been to India and seen the way people just barely exist there?

You need to see how after the shops close, people litteraly like rows of corn, sleep on the sidewalks because of their poverty.

So in what jobs do you think we will be able to compete with areas of the world such at this? You are living in a dream world Mac.

And how is that exactly...cutting household expenses to the point that white collar workers can't afford to buy homes or install air conditioning in their rental flats because they can't afford the electric bill?

I'm sure Miami and Phoenix will be wonderful places to live in August without our friends at Carrier.
