What�s the difference between outsourcing software and outsourcing
tennis production? If outsourcing software is cheaper than producing
it at home why stop it? To protect the "American Programmer"? How
about the "American ShoeMaker" and the "American Soy Farmer"?
Should the first world stop importing food from "third world scum"
like my country? Should Brazil stop "importing" foreign brands, like
Nike, Coke, Tommy HilDamnFiger, McDonalds, and tons of other "good
american brands"?
I really don't get your point. Maybe because there is none.
