Outsourcing is Good for You

gManZboy writes "Catherine Mann, from the Institute for International Economics, has a look at What Global Outsourcing Means for U.S. IT Workers up over at Queue. She's got an interesting argument: outsourcing means cheaper IT products, meaning businesses will buy more, meaning more products to make & manage = net gain of IT jobs in the US. Ummm, did you follow that?"

    And don't know a damn thing about what they claim to be experts in. Anybody who hires an economist might as well be hiring a crystal ball worshiper for all the good the information will do you.

  2. Prediction for R-Convention:Dogma BS again .... by OldHawk777 · · Score: 0, Troll

    ____ Gay relation-ship supporter and embarrassing "Vice" President Dick (Haliburton) Chaney will not be selected to run, due to R-platform differences (coincidently recently restated again, for US UN EU, in the setup news story/conference).
    ____ Recently PR-Bush (USANG Draft Dodger George) asked Senator John McCain to get to the bottom of the 527-campaign ads and sue for liable if possible (NOT!).____ Gosh; John McCain, would make a real good VP candidate for the R-party, and cure a few election potential problems, because we all know "John McCain" is more electable then either DemRep President options.

    To dang bad we can't bet on USA President stuff, maybe VP stuff is okay what's the legal (I wonder)?
