DON'T BUY AMERICAN -- GOV'T POLICY
Economic warfare against the U.S. such as this is ignored by Washington:

"This backlash is bound to grow in the coming six months and we have to find ways of dealing with it," Wipro Vice-chairman Vivek Paul said"

This kind of thing will create backlash, and rightfully so:

"The outsourcing will continue and they can't stop it even if they try to lobby," says Kris Krishnakanth, the head of Headhunters India

Makes you want to say, "Oh yeah? We'll find a way to slow it down, just watch." Of course, that requires finding those in Congress and the administration who care about American interests, which is almost impossible... U.S. Gov't officials are more easily bribed by India and multinationals than by citizens -- that's the fundamental problem.

And this -- a good example of why American workers will get the shaft by Bush, Congress and bribe-paying multinationals:

Just how sensitive the issue has become was evident when Paul refused to give details of Wipro's deals with Microsoft. He indicated that Microsft did not want to publicise its deals because of domestic fears

Time to boycott Microsoft, and take a Tax Holiday until gov't officials acknowledge the "Don't Buy American" policy of gov't and multinationals, who suck the blood of American tax dollars, and spread that wealth overseas.
