61% Americans fear job-loss due to outsourcing

Sixty-one per cent Americans say they are concerned that they (or a friend or a relative of theirs) might lose a job because the employer is moving that job to a foreign country, says a Gallup Poll.

Forty-one per cent say they are 'very concerned' about this happening, and another one in five (20 per cent) say they are 'somewhat concerned.'

Fifty-eight per cent Americans say that the issue of outsourcing US jobs to foreign countries will be 'very important' when they are deciding their votes for the President (in November), and another one in four (27 per cent) say it will be 'fairly important.'

On an overall basis, satisfaction with the way things are going on in the United States is declining in the US with the Gallup Poll finding that only 4 out of every 10 Americans are satisfied.

This isn't a recipe for strong economic growth in my book.
