I think the reason people get angry in the US is because it's not the very rich whose standard of living is going down. Those fucks still have their money. The jobs that are being outsourced are the jobs of the regular Joes and Sallys, people like you and me. I'm having a hell of a time getting a crappy administrative position that pays 14.00/hr. My fiance works for a major computer corporation who has outsourced its entire dispatching division to Costa Rica, because they can pay them 6 bucks an hour, instead of the 10 they'd have to pay a US worker. In the meantime, my fiance hasn't seen a raise in 6 years. Nobody in his district has, despite posting 24 BILLION in profits THIS FISCAL QUARTER ALONE.

I have a college education. My fiance has 2 BS in very high tech fields.

I'm not surprised US workers are tired of footing the bill for the rest of the world. Our gov't and big business are running a train on us.
