I can applaud Ed on this one. <g> It's not a level playing field, and telling the US IT worker that he can't make above $20/hr because our good brothers overseas work for that or less is horseshit. Any company that sells out its workforce for a cheaper buck overseas should have some sort of responsibility to help fill the void he left behind in their nation's economy. That line about "we're only responsible to the stockholders" should be a crime, punishable by listening to Steve Ballmer and his marketing pitches for Winbloze. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
