yeah, but we don't *see* the money. the corporations/ceos do. but not "us". americans don't have those jobs, they're not getting paid the money, they're not spending that money or investing it here.

it's kind of like educating kids from foreign countries in engineering, business, computers, etc (not that i mind), but ignoring our own college-bound kids. it's shooting yourself in the foot.

i wonder what percentage of far eastern, indian, etc. students in those kinds of fields wind up going back home to use those skills.

but i have digressed...lol
