    ^ Why don't companies in the west lobby to reduce the cost of living of their employees at home? It seems sending people overseas to work for less while subsidising their cost of living is accomplishing the same thing. If the tactics pointed to above gets popular, i see a sea of westerners moving to cheap labor markets and locals not standing a chance. So much for that "outsourcing helps developing countries" gamit.:) Looking for me in cyberspace? I am the electron with the red hat, occupying 3rd sit on the left of the data bus. by the way, perl stinks. "I believe god invented man, because he was disappointed in the monkey" Mark Twain

Interesting idea (reduce cost of living), I don't think it will work in the US. Besides many of those companies, employ the same people who used to work here. There was a mass exodus at the end of the 90s, of most of the forign programers (mainly Indea). So there is a lot of experenced programers over there that can be hired cheaper than here. INTP
