Its garbage that people who work their asses off for degree's and pay all that money, then finally get a job, just to have it taken away from them after three years of busting their ass. Often times they have to spend all that money again to learn somthing new. I know its easy to just say, the jobs have to stay here, and I really dont know how it is supposed to work, I'm still learning all that stuff. I just know the principles of it suck.
Just out of curiousity, did you read my post on the matter? When you work for someone else, you're sort of at their mercy. That's the way it goes. If you started a business, and you realize that you could make more money by manufacturing a product somewhere else for less, wouldn't you do that?

It works the same way when you buy something. If you go to Circuit City and find Madden 2005 for $49.95, but Best Buy has the same thing for $39.95, what would you do? Do you suck it up and say, "well, these people at Circuit City bust their ass, I'll bite the loss because I'm a swell guy," and fork over the extra 10 bucks? Of course not!

Businesses work the same way. They maximize profits so that they can stay in business. That's the name of the game in simple, basic economics.
