Ah! To Have a Real Luxury in America--A Good Paying Job

Americans are being kept in the dark about the realities of how outsourcing coupled with illegal immigration have wiped out many millions of American jobs. The wealthiest are seeing us not as valuable assets to a company--we are seen as liabilities and they want "low-cost" solutions. These solutions are in reality sending every conceivable type of job that can be done on a computer to another country where dirt-low wages are paid, thus they reap huge profits. The wealthiest also depend on the dirt-paid illegal immigrant like a drug addict needing a cheap fix. But, when it comes to Americans, who live here, raise families here, want to have the best for their children, and to have good medical care for themselves or their children--forget it.... And when it comes to providing medical benefits--that's a joke. Americans don't get a straight answer--only answers like "the illegal immigrants do the jobs that no Americans want to do." Doesn't that sound a bit like discrimination ringing clear again? And doesn't that sound like we Americans don't want to work, or don't like to work? Hardly! Too many people -- American citizens born here -- would crave to have these jobs. And what about all the financial, computer, administrative jobs--the ones that require people to have a college education? Now they cannot find good work--the jobs are being done by people in other countries--we are too expensive. Well, guess what? we can boycott buying or using your products -- we can avoid recommending your company to people. Outsourcing is not how life has to be. We need to use the power of the pen and the ballot, not to forget the strength of boycotting to resolve this ignorance. Also, why aren't we standing up to say that we want our factories returned to our homeland? What happens, just suppose, that if we have all our products made in another country, and hostility breaks out between our country and theirs? How would we get our products then? If we talk and claim being committed to "Homeland Security" then bring the companies, factories, and jobs back home--protect our people first--they pay the taxes, live here, raise their children, they vote, and want a strong American homeland. We are NOT cheap labor, nor are we some wealthy person's convenience--we ARE the real hard-working, deserving Americans and we do not want our country sold out based on greed. Call and write your Congressional delegation and demand change be made--our real liberty and freedom are at stake!
