FR, Never fear! In my exposure to the world of "Big Business" you can rest assured than in a while when cost cutting is necessary again someone will justify bringing the jobs back here to save money! I have seen it happen.

If outsourcing is so good, why don't we outsource the military, hire a bunch of cheap labor, put them in uniforms and send them over to IRAQ to defend us

actually, there was a report on npr recently saying that we do exactly this ... although they're u.s. companies run by retired military ...

Fed, I just think outsourcing is a natural progression of a Global Economy and it's a good thing. Keep in mind it's still a very small percentage of overall jobs and you're right the pendulum probabaly will swing too much in the outsourcing direction and there will be failures before a happy medium is reached.
