Hi Pete, I said that 5 years ago...that the average IT geek probably put a lot of $$ into the tax coffers with his pay tax and especially the "toys" s/he bought. Now, being underemployed or unemployed, those revenues aren't being made up by the outsourcers. That's my beef with it...the whole US tax system (i.e., the pot which provides our social services and infrastructure) gets cheated. -- Michael J.
