Gloves and cars, sure there so much alike in manufacturing and in complexity. Come on, give us a better example of why cars, the highest profit durable good (as apposed to making mops and brooms like china) we have should go under. As a service society, you can only have so many white color jobs and only so many service jobs like air-condition repair people and you can’t build an economy only on non-profits…. The industrial revolution has left in the early 70’s but you still have to have living wage jobs for those that don’t have a higher education because you don’t get living wages stocking shelves and sweeping floors at Target or Home Dept.

This guy just said the most outrageous lie I have ever heard on wnyc radio.

Saying we have a shortage of computer people here is either astonishingly ignorant or just a lie.

There are HUGE numbers of highly experienced computer people like myself who have been out of work for quite some time. This is common knowledge.

The only people who have been calling for an increase in H1-B visa guest workers are corporate executives looking to crush the wage power of American workers even further.

But there are many skilled laborers in this country, they can't get jobs because of outsourcing. Companies are abusing the H1-b Visa program.

Its not about getting someone to do the job. It's about how cheap they are willing to work.

It's people like this guest who thinks that everyone should make $1 per hour.
