It's a short ride to a 3rd world status for the US should this absurdity continue. The more we cut middle class jobs, whether it be to send them overseas or replace them with cheap labor that will never get the job done right, the closer we come to 3rd world where there exists only lower and upper income groups. For Mark Hurd and other bigwigs, this makes no difference as they think only of their own bloated wallets, which are already filled to overflowing and then some. I despise A-Rod with all my heart and soul but I would rather see his bank accounts rise than any CEO or corporate member of any company. I won't live to see it, and I am not of the belief that I will see it after I'm dead, but I look forward to somehow knowing that these corrupt callous bastards will get their due. I would take great pleasure in it. They are nothing but ordinary, run of the mill crooks and should you think differently, you are pathetically naive or uninformed.

Eventually American IT professionals will have to go India to find work.

Thank you United States government for encouraging business to cut cost (jobs) by sending jobs overseas!

I wonder when CEO's are going to begin outsourcing their own jobs?
