Dobbs needs a new life. This old one is nothing but a rerun after rerun.

Dobbs doesn't seem to understand that its the total failure of the US education system that has lead to Indian outsourcing. The outsourcing in India is not for T-shirts or rubber dog doo, it's for serious knowledge labor that is no longer available from a pot-smoking MTV-watching uneducated US polulation.

As a small business owner with 12 outsourced software programming jobs in India, I am unable to find the talent and team cohesion in the US that I can in Mumbai. Plain and simple.

The NEA wants more money from all of us to continue cranking out dysfunctional idiots who can tell you all day about every social ill imposed on the world by the good people of this country, but they can't write a line of code, a business letter, or even a resume.

It's just plain sad.

Sorry Lou... you're attacking the wrong crowd. Go after the NEA if you want to do some good.

But at some point we have to ask, what will we export? At what will Americans work?

Apparently only in health care ---- even providing free health to foreign citizens who don't wish to build up their own health care systems, and education --- we still have to provide kids 12 years or more education with free lunch programs, and the military --- Americans go go off to do the dying that other people don't wish to do and the American taxpayers will somehow have to come up with the money to pay for all this but have no jobs that bring in money.

Doesnt Dobbs tout these same company's in his $$$ private newsletter?

I tuned him in on my XM radio last night, and it was the same schpiel, over and over.

Would he rather we be Germany with 32 hour work weeks, 20 percent unemployment?

And yet, if I had invested in "Dobb's Portfolio" of companies he hates for outsourcing, my 401(K) would be looking mighty fine and my dreams retirement fulfilled. Afterall, I'm not dumb enough to believe 70 million workers can be supported through the labor of 35 million.
Trade off? My generation.
Keep outsourcing.

The better question would be this:

"Why does CNN kiss the ground the DNC walks on?

American workers will eventually find themselves unable to purchase the goods and services being exported back to America by American companies.

And there is a plus according to the macro planners, I bet. Keeps inflation low, less money chasing goods and services.

I believe that today "full employment" is not the goal, but rather an unemployment rate that keeps inflation manageable is the goal.

RE: anti-"free traders" are socialists

Oh yeah?! So's your old man.

Above it all IMO are the Davos, Switzerland, U.N., and other internationalists and their "raise everyone's boat" one-world socialist schemes. Why else would DLC New Democrat Third Way "progressives" buy into such capitalist things as "Americans do not have a right to a job" (in so many words) and labor arbitrage? They intend to manage globalization based upon rules-based (their rules) "free trade." They need "greedy" corporations' market economy to create prosperity in developing countries. IMO, American workers are paying for the developing world's free lunch and tomorrow's world socialist government -- and that after as taxpayers the workers helped pay for developing countries' infrastructures to support today's modern facilities. IMO.

"Free traders" scrambling to get to developing countries are the one-world socialists' useful idiots.

Enjoy your wealth "free traders," except for the truly wealthy you are not likely to keep it long -- oh, and thanks for the one-world Third Way, Marxist government. Coming soon.

Dobbs is such a sellout! This guy knows, if he's worth his salt, that it's "union greed" that is shipping American jobs overseas.

"India can provide our software; China can provide our toys; Sri Lanka can make our clothes; Japan make our cars. But at some point we have to ask, what will we export? At what will Americans work? And for what kind of wages? No one I've asked in government, business or academia has been able to answer those questions," Dobbs writes.

Imperial Spain was there in 16th century. Do not look farther.

Girlie man Dobbs cashing in with his tome...

There's nothing wrong with "exporting" jobs especially when in return we create new customers for our products and services.

I will say this: Corporations have no choice in many instances but to export jobs: over regulated, over socialized, over compensated and protected workers here would lead to stagnation if they didn't.

Pehaps Dobbs should write less, and read more.

Corporate "greed" in the real world is Corporate fiduciary responsibility to maximize ROI for its stockholders. I thought conservatives understood that simple concept.
