Offshoring
Three million jobs have been lost in the past
three years. Many of these jobs were lost to
"off-shoring," the exporting of American jobs
by large corporations.
According
to a Berkeley study,
14 million jobs are still at risk.
This means that
one of every nine
American workers may lose their jobs
to off-shoring!
One of my off-shored friends created this website
to help keep Americans aware of which companies
STILL DO NOT OFF-SHORE. The list is quite
interesting. If you think this effort might help awaken
American workers to the danger of off-shoring,
then please forward this link to work associates,
friends, and family!
