So exactlywhat's faulty about my argument (Note I never said that my position was always the case, just often). I know people get screwed by offshoring. But I'm frankly a little sick of people going on and on like companies owe them a job. Tom's rant up there was simply wrong in most particulars (especially how H1b's get payed, the folks doing the undercutting are mostly immigrants, not H1b's due to the real-world restrictions on employing H1b's, and on the lack of properly trained technical people in the US, which is very real, particularly in engineering) and his response disn't answer a single one of my objections to his original rant, let alone disprove any of them. -- M.
