As less and less money is available for the majority the less they can spend on any goods and services produced. Remember one companies wages are another companies revenue. You will be affected negatively it is only a matter of time. The only way to change it would be to regulate how much work can be shipped overseas and make it expensive when you do so. That can't happen because those VERY few that obscenly profit from it buy those that make the rules. They have basically checkmated capitlism as we used to know it and we are in a death spiral and those that think their party will fix it are simply whistling past the grave yard.

I agree, but ask yourself what has the current administration done to create any type of job growth or prohibit companies from shipping jobs overseas? Last I checked he made Jeffrey Immelt the jobs Czar. How many jobs has GE shipped overseas? How much money was spent to try and create jobs with little to no sucess? Heck Nancy Pelosi believes that unemployment compensation creates jobs. I guess things could have been worse without government involvement, but anyone who deems this administration a success in creating jobs or job growth is kidding themselves....
