Americans Need To Drop Down To The Poverty Levels Of The Third World
After I wrote a piece chastising outsourcing to foreign countries and America’s immigration predicament as it absorbs 3.1 million from around the world annually, a man from Madrass, India wrote back, “Mr. Wooldridge, you may be angry at us in India because of the H-1B, H-2B and L-1 Visas, as well as the outsourcing of jobs to my country…but we can make better products and do the job much cheaper than you Americans…besides you have been living an artificially high standard of living for decades; it’s about time you drop down to the poverty levels of the third world; immigration will do that to your country.”
And sure enough, it is doing just that with 15 million unemployed Americans and 41.8 million of us subsisting on food stamps! Thanks to our presidents and Congresses for the past 30 years for destroying manufacturing in the United States! A friend named Les at my recreation center said yesterday, “It’s not complicated! You take jobs away from Americans by outsourcing, insourcing and offshoring—and you’ve got nobody to buy the goods. Bet Congress never thought about that!”
And now… the rest of the story. …..
