I never thought I'd see the day when custom auto work would be
outsourced.

Whats next, take your car nto jiffy lube for an oil change and they
ship it to mexico to have the work done, then ship it back ?

People here need to quit expecting to earn 20 bucks an hour for a job
that is only worth 10 bucks an hour, no wonder all the jobs are going
overseas.

That's pure horse****; you are part of the problem if you buy that line of
crap. Example: Ford sells a truck for $25,000. It is made in the U.S. with
pricey union labor. Ford outsources the truck to Mexico where the labor
costs are about 25% of the U.S. rate. Ford sells the outsourced truck in
the U.S. for $26,000.

When everyone is finally reduced to Wart Mart wages (a Rethuglican wet
dream) who will be buying the $26,000 vehicle?

If everyone is finally reduced to Wal*Mart wages, no one
will be buying $26,000 vehicles. Do you really think it's
possible to reduce everyone to Wal*Mart wages? How? What
about the people who don't work for wages?

My best guess is that Ford is not faced with the prospect of
running out of customers for their $26,000 vehicles.

Well take a look at wage growth, or lack thereof. Yes, quiz kid, it's a
very real possibility that we might end up not being able to buy $26,000
vehicles at the rate household income is dropping. Of course we can
continue racking up personal debt at a rate never before seen in the
history of this country. Your simplistic denial of reality affirms your
membership in the vast reich wing club of unthinking sheeple. BTW, true to
your ilk's fashion, I notice you neatly sidestepped my point about
corporate amerika pocketing the savings in exporting jobs to third world
sweatshops. Jesus, you make Stevie Wonder look like he has 20/20 vision.

Dude, you are missing my point. For example; a telemarketeer is simply
not worth 15 bucks an hour to harrass people on the phone. If they
work for what the job is worth (say maybe 6 bucks an hour), you would
see less telemarketing jobs moving overseas. Why pay an IT 150,000
bucks a year when the job is worth maybe 25,000 bucks a year, see
folks expect to be payed far more than they are worth. I call it
greed. A company cannot payout more then it brings in... simple
economics. People need to stop living life styles they simply cannot
afford, I blame that on credit cards, but thats a whole nother can of
worms.
