We out source more and more.Would you as an American leave this country to find work to feed your family?If you had to, to survive,would you go to Mexico for a job?Or would you go on welfare?Or would you try to force the U S government,with risk of being locked up,or shot,to change?

Out sourcing into Mexico caused massive problems with their farming industry creating a large amount of illegal immigration to the U S.For those of you who know the name of this project great.For those of you who don't I'm not saying since I seem to get suspended when I mention this word.

The locked up or shot was in Mexico not the U S doing it.Trying to make a point on how their government is different than ours.

Legally, sure I'd move if I had to. What makes this about outsourcing? That was an interesting lead in, since I consider over-immigration and outsourcing to be two sides of the same coin, but then you kinda dropped that.
I will be joining my fellow citizens in trying to bring change, and with the recent Senate Bill did so. I have no intention of doing anything that SHOULD get me locked up or shot, however.

Did you know that the vast majority of the illegal immigrants actually leave jobs in their home country to come here? I did not know this until I was doing research on the PEW Hispanic Center on-line website. Many use reuniting with family for the reason for coming to America. Others view America as a more competitive job market, sort of shocking to me I thought they were starving...
"The vast majority of undocumented migrants from Mexico were gainfully employed before they left for the United States. Thus, failure to find work at home does not seem to be the primary reason" - by Rakesh Kochhar, Associate Director for Research, Pew Hispanic Center

Americans have never been shy about taking on our government, hopefully we haven't been shot in the head for doing so but we have never been shy about going head to head with government and corporate power.

This was the reason I decided to become self-employed. I had no one to answer to (except IRS). I was the one in charge, and I didn't have any fear of being laid off. All I had to do was keep getting more accounts, and clients.
Did you know that in Darfur the women there have come together and started producing handmade beads out of old magazines, and newspapers. Those beads are spectacular, and just amazing. Who knew that stuff like that could be produced. Those women sell those beads, and bead-work to an American business woman who in turn sells their items for them. Every time the American woman goes back to Darfur, she pays those women for their work. As well as gives them the money they earned (from her sales) for their creative product. That is what they did to change their lives, and their outlook on life. And they didn't even have to leave the country. They just needed someone who saw what they could do with their creative minds in desperate times.

My view has been if we stop the handouts to those who can work, the need for cheap labor will go away and with it the need that the illegal immigrant is filling.
As for outsourcing of Jobs to other countries, services is the same as goods, and the price will fluctuate base on the market.
As the available labor pool increases for a service, the cost will drop, once that happens then the need to outsource will no longer be there.

Finally out of the closet! You appear now to be espousing a Marxist Socialists Revolt!
Sorry, we have the best system in the entire World, and it will self correct again, because you can not fool the American People again about the coming 2008 elections.

Being that this country has provide very well for it's citizens since day one, I think your question evades the responsibly of the illegals to stay in their home country and decide they want better for their children and grandchildren and do what is necessary to make a better life for themselves and children. Yes and if it takes bloodshed or death that's called defending your rights. One of the main reasons for the last 50 years the Mexican moneyed class has held complete economic control, and kept 98% of it's citizens in poverty is because of the safety valve of not only allowing but encouraging their ciztens to cross illigally to the USA

I'm not the kind to move. I moved about 13 miles once, and I plan never to do it again. There are people like me in every country - there are people like me in Mexico and Iraq, if there weren't, those nations would be empty.

It's just the way economy works. We all want cheap products, someone has to work for cheap to make them.
