Isn't this just a problem with the underlying capitalism model of business? In the short run, it makes sense to reduce costs by any means, in this case, outsourcing, in order to stay competitive. In the long run, however, the thing that keeps the economy afloat is not the supply side but the demand side, and you need workers with money in their pockets to buy your goods if you plan to actually sell things. Just a short note on the basic schizophrenia of the model - nobody stays in business trying to pay workers extravagantly, but that's the best way to keep everyone in business. Just a short note after too much scotch. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming :) -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | <DannyS> Hit the monkey to win $20(*)! | | steve@lobefin.net | * knghtbrd gets out his mallet. * | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | knghtbrd plants it firmly on DannyS' | | | head. * knghtbrd will take his $20 now. | | | =D | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attachment:
