Outsourcing is not evil. (Score 1)

"U.S. tech hiring has increased, despite oversees outsourcing" This should say "because" of not "despite". Outsourcing helps companies to grow. The redundant, commodity-type work gets farmed to the lowest bidder which enables companies to hire US employees for bigger salaries to do inovative and creative work. This strengthens our economy, provides lower prices and improves our standard of living. Outsourcing is not the terror many beleive it to be, it's a benefit. If you lose your job to outsourcing, you are in a job that can be done by anyone, and will be bid out for the lowest possible price. I'd suggest adding to your repetoire of skills if you arein this situation.
