The outsourcing of American jobs has once again become big news in 2016. Before Obama took office, Americans were afraid to lose their jobs to workers in China or south Asia. Then, it was Mexico taking our jobs, from Caterpillar to Carrier, and — most recently — Ford.
Now, companies don’t even have to look outside of our country’s borders to find cheap immigrant labor. Thanks to H1-B visas, jobs once held by Americans are increasingly going to “guest workers” in the United States who are willing to work for much less money.
This phenomenon is no stranger to the tech industry in Silicon Valley, which has been doing this for years, but now it’s spreading into multiple lines of business across the nation.
All of this because of government keeps trying to force a “global economy” and trade deals that elevate the third world while crushing the American economy.

Fire them and bring back Americans.
Here is what you get when a company tell you they don’t want people telling them what to do. You forced their hand and you lost. Stop the madness and the depressive bs . Liberals don’t care about you folks. They sit in their cushy jobs in Washington using you as a puppet for votes and you fall for the c**p. ….how much you making now? Is it possible that their not going to support you if you don’t find a job. Go to their front door. Go on , let’s see what they do.
all we have to do is STOP giving them business but how many people would do it I think their food is terrible and customer service sucks
Makes me happy that I never used their products.
I don’t eat at McDonald’s anymore. Last I ate a meal the meat was nasty. Not sure what I ate. Never again.
Well if you consider having to work multiple jobs making around minimum wage because employers only hire part time (under 30 hrs) because of the ACA (Obamacare) then yes there was some job growth in that sense … and the US has been slowly losing jobs due to NAFTA ( Clinton era) , Question Dave … Did Obama ever do anything wrong (in your eyes) ? and you failed to realize that the Democrats controlled both houses of congress in the last 2 yrs of Bush (housing bubble) and during the first 2 yrs of Obama
Boycott there$#%&!@*
Big surprise there hell Mickey D’s here in KC area half the people that work there can’t speak English so they may as well just turn them into taco and burrito haven or something!
Hhmm! Let’s think about this, all these elite geniuses that are running these American companies have been dumping on the American blue-collar workers here, I’m sure most of them don’t give two-shits about middle class Americans. That’s why the minimum wage is also being raised around the country, say goodbye to entry level jobs, their automation will cover most of those jobs, they will profit from that! Now the corporations are going after cheap labor in white-collar jobs including university professor jobs. Here’s my question, do these people plan on eliminating positions for All Americans? Who will by their products after the core of America are unemployed? If they are sending their off-spring through the universities, will they be able to get jobs? As for the companies that are playing these games, I for one have stopped buying their products and will continue to do so and encourage others to do the same. I have worked in multi-cultural, multi-language companies; processes and functions are difficult to navigate at best, I fear what this will do to our country as Americans opprtunities and wages disappear…..
