The Lou Dobbs Show

[flashback]

Pretty soon there won't be any jobs left in this country for the lower classes, except for cleaning toilets, changing oil, delivering fast-food.

You say this like it's a bad thing.

either that was sarcasm or you are pretty heartless.

There's something wrong about the so-called "man of the people" going out to schmooze radio execs to clear his show. Demonstrates how clubby, closed-minded and insular the upper echelon of the radio business is, and the roadblock groupthink presents to genuine new ideas to expand talk radio's demos, including Air America and Greenstone Media.

I'm kind of glad Biggus is against the Fairness Doctrine. May be the best argument for it.

Flash! People without job skills have few economic prospects. In other news, scientists determine water is "wet", sky is "blue".

The problem isn't that there aren't many jobs for the unskilled, but that the unskilled even exist. We spend trillions of dollars on education in this country and yet we still produce hordes of people lacking even the most basic abilities. Instead of having factories staffed by meatbots, and patting ourselves on the back for a job well done, we should get rid of the "schools" that make meatbots instead of educated human beings.

But I think Lou Dobbs likes meatbots, as long as they're native-born.

Lou has been known to make dumb career moves. Like when he left CNN to start up a web based "space exploration/UFO" gig. That sure didn't last long!

WRONG!

He started space.com, a very reputable website, which he still holds an interest in.

Yeah. It would sure be interesting to see how die-hard free traders react when their jobs are shipped overseas.
It's all good and everything until you lose your touted spot.

OK, Dude...we get it. You think outsourcing is bad.

Fine. You're entitled to your opinion.

Can we get back to radio?

EXCUSE ME... this is about radio. This topic is a big part of Dobbs' broadcast.

KBNP can be heard in Portland; it's not 100 miles away

It's not just the unskilled that are losing their jobs to outsourcing.

Computer Science jobs - the supposed most promising college degree these days - are being shifted to Bangalore, India, so Bill Gates doesn't have to pay the "exhorbitant" U.S. wages.

Leaders in that field have testified in Congress about this outsourcing and how it's harming U.S. white collar jobs.

Will your industry be next?

what you say may be true but to present an attitude that it is a good thing is what I was talking about.you don`t have to like a thing to accept it as a reality.

good point. it is bad enough when any american job is sent overseas but when people who go to college to get a degree in fields like computer science or such and they are considered to be wanting too much pay so those jobs are taken from the u.s. (the word outsourcing waters down the situation) that is much worse.

there is the need to keep a company afloat and greed. much outsourcing is pure greed.
