Keep Our Jobs Here

Now we can rest because we know where Lebron James will play basketball, maybe we can turn our attentions to all of the U.S. jobs being offshored.  I refuse to speak to people not in the United States,  when I call customer service and can not understand the person on the other end of the line, I ask to be transfered to someone in the United States.  If they will not do that well then it is time to change companies.  Do not let someone overseas deal with your private information.

Another example.  An entertainment company here decided to save on benefits and off shore their I.T. department.  The company can not find anyone in their country to do this job... so they come back to the United States and off you your old job back.  The only problem you were making 100 thousand dollars a year.. the want to pay you 30,  the entertainment company is still shelling out 100 grand... but no benefits... most say no now the U.S. companies are trying to get out of those contracts.  Hey government leaders... DO SOMETHING.  Make it horrible for companies to off shore... you are good at taxing.. so make it undesirable to off shore.  Thats the way to keep our jobs here, with people working spending and paying taxes.  I guess they did not teach smart business sense in political hack school.
