Outsourcing

Jobs have been outsourced for several years now from America to other countries. It has struck many states such as North Carolina very hard in certain areas. Manufacturing jobs and furniture companies have felt the effects the hardest. Furniture manufacturers are becoming almost obsolete. Great furniture cities like Thomasville and Lexington and High Point have become almost like ghost towns. Large factories have been shuttered or have just become storage warehouses. Thousands have lost their jobs! India, China, and Vietnam , plus many more countries are benefiting--going as far to train their employees to speak English. Call center jobs have gone abroad. There has been shows revealing how high paying and exclusive those jobs are considered. What about US citizens? The latest injustice.. a lower wage job like a fast food drive thru worker has been outsourced--how ridiculous!! America needs its jobs! I don't have anything against other countries and their citizens prospering, but someone needs to do something about this epidemic. When you pull up to a McDonald's drive thru and order from someone in India--hasn't this gone too far?Business owners outsourcing these jobs argue that they can spend less on labor by going that route. Its all about profit.. and that is the American way--or is it? How is it American capitalism when the jobs are in another country? Profit is great and great profits should be made, but not at the expense of our American workers. Profit can still be made by leaving jobs in the USA! I think that we should band together and call or petition the politicians to do something about it. The president or congress needs to put legislation in place which makes it against the law to outsource or at least limits it somehow.
