same headlines 1990's to early 2000's. lets look at what happened back then with an example: > allstate insurance fired 95% of its state side maintenance staff incrementally and outsourced it all to ireland in late 1990's. > local government wanted a fix for unemployment and offered sweetheart deals: constructing office buildings, leasing them to allstate rent free, eventually giving allstate the property, paid recruitment and training of non comp-sci graduates in cobol, telon, pl1, visual basic etc. thousands were put through a primitive 'cobol bootcamp' > these 'trainees' were then employed by allstate on local minimum wage and given responsibility for legacy support of critical allstate systems.  > around mid-late 2000's local government fucked these workers bargaining power to move up from min wage by importing polacks and hiring them on same salary (so much for curing local unemployment) > when local government said, 'we need to talk about these subsidies', allstate setup another subsidiary in india to outsource again, even more cheap, but it failed because jeets are even worse. local government then backdown. better than us workers? the majority sat around doing nothing all day and were hired to meet an employment stat required by local government, those who could do the work had comp-sci degrees.  but the joke was on these irish and polacks who fucked american workers because its a dead end, crabs in a bucket job, with a jeet always there to take it. tldr: there is only a shortage of cheap labor. corporations seed these stories in the media to justify their plans to maximize profit. they want government (wherever it is) to supply cheap labor, and they want paid off from that government in neverending corporate welfare to setup and remain. if you fall for op's meme you are a retard.
