I'm a pretty liberal guy, but i don't really know what to do about outsourcing and downsizing. They seem inevitable.

Just thinking out loud : How would you feel about tariffs that would enable the paycheck of the American worker to compete with the paycheck of the Vietnamese worker?
The American worker gets more than the 1,500,000 dong per month his Vietnamese competitor gets, but this is not because of the unions only, it's because the of the level of living standards in the U.S.
(1,500,000 vietnamese dong = $100)

BBBBBrilliant. I guess you would like to start paying $40 for your t-shirts and $100 for your jeans. At Target. Or maybe $500 for your Nikes.
While we're at it, why don't we put up a giant [censored] steel curtain around our country...because it would be such a shame to lose jobs to foreign workers. "America the free, land of liberty, off-limits to you stinkin' foreigners takin our jebs."
I'm reminded of Natedogg's definition of a democrat - a democrat is a liberal who doesn't understand economics.
Cyrus, you are a democrat.
