Funny? I think it is great that Bush is allowing the United Nitwits a chance to redeem themselves....

Re: U.S. Jobs - I've got some bad news and I've got some REALLY BAD news...

<snip>

Could it get any worse? Hell, yes! That is, if Bush's push to privatize hundreds of thousands of
government jobs succeeds. Once privatized, these jobs will no longer be required to be filled by
Americans. Already, some government services have been shipped overseas (or as the economists say,
"transferred offshore."). One unemployed man I know in Baltimore was stunned when he called to ask
about foodstamp benefits and had his call handled by someone in India! The poor guy had the double
indignity of not only having to call to ask about foodstamps, but to have his benefits described to him by
someone in Bombay or Calcutta who, thanks to G. W. Bush, is having no employment problems.

By the way, Mr. Boyapati:

What kinds of "benefits" are $16/hour MSEEs or $10/hour programmers in India provided by US corporations "outsourcing" there?

Do you know?

TIA,
