To me it seems that OWS is crying about the big wigs getting bonuses etc...the real reason there are no jobs in the US is because they are being moved to India. Can anyone mention this...the jobs get moved to India so the shareholders have bigger profits and this is disgusting. Soon there will be no middle class.
There are self proclaimed brilliant capitalists here that tell me how this is good for our nation to be concerned with those in other countries having a job, and more important than Americans having jobs.
Anyone who thinks otherwise, according to them, is a communist.
I sure don't see it that way. My United States gets fixed first and takes care of it's own FIRST. All other nations aren't even in a close third place.
Most of the jobs that are being outsourced are jobs that Americans don't want anyway. I keep having to hire Venezuelans as software developers, because Americans look down on high-paying, high-skill jobs in high-demand fields, like accounting, actuarial science, pharmacology, software, engineering, nursing. The average American has no more interest in any of those professions than in gardening, or housekeeping. 'Too hard.' Everybody in the US wants to go into business school so that they can be a 1%er like Donald Trump, so nobody studies for the high-demand jobs that are plentifully available. So that's why we need foreigners to do our software development and our landscaping and all of the other jobs that we don't want because they're too hard.
yep? do this, pass it along....
Subject: American jobs
I just read this on one of those Occupy Wall Street forums. GREAT IDEA!
The gas company serving this area brought their call center back to Atlanta from India last year after numerous customer complaints. What a difference now when you call them...and it created 300 jobs. I know this works because they were so bad that when India answered I wouldn't even deal with them. I'd simply ask to be transferred to a supervisor in the U.S. and they would comply. Now that I know it is the LAW - I will do it for sure
Any time you call an 800 number
(for a credit card, banking, charter communications, health and other insurance, computer help desk, etc)
and you find that you're talking to a foreign customer service representative
(perhaps in India, Philippines, etc), please consider doing the following:
After you connect and you realize that the customer service representative is not from the USA (you can always ask if you are not sure about the accent), please, very politely
(this is not about trashing other cultures)
say, "I'd like to speak to a customer service representative in the United States of America .."
The rep might suggest talking to his/her manager,
but, again, politely say, "Thank you, but I'd like to speak to a customer service representative in the USA .."
YOU WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A REP IN THE USA . That's the rule and the LAW.
It takes less than one minute to have your call re-directed to the USA .
Tonight when I got redirected to a USA rep, I asked again to make sure - and yes, she was from Fort Lauderdale .
Imagine what would happen if every US citizen insisted on talking to only US phone reps from this day on.
Imagine how that would ultimately impact the number of US jobs that would need to be created ASAP.
If I tell 10 people to consider this and you tell 10 people to consider doing this - see what I mean...it becomes an exercise in viral marketing 101.
Remember - the goal here is to restore jobs back here at home - not to be abrupt or rude to a foreign phone rep. You may even get correct answers, good advice, and solutions to your problem - in real English.
If you agree, please forward this to 10 people you know, and ask them to tell 10 people they know....etc...etc

And what would be the difference between talking to an Indian versus talking to an American?
I'm for the movement but there is so much more going on.
Perhaps if we didn't chase jobs out via high taxes, union demands, excessive regs perhaps you'd have a job !
maybe if American companies were not so greedy for high profits, living wild on the hog and resource hogs ... just sayin

If video is about a crime incident just know that I have worked in a police department and the American public has no idea of the horrible crimes committed in America.
