Re: Who doesn't want to be an engineer?

Why would you want to be an engineer or programmer when the jobs are going to India and China? As an engineer myself it is getting harder to find jobs and I'm making less money than I used to.

The only people who make more and more money in this country are the greedy rich CEOs, lawyers, big name athletes and entertainment superstars.

That's a very small percentage of the population so essentially America is going to become a feudal state of royalty and peasants. Unless something is done soon about it.

Btw, Delphi has recently announced some tech job cutbacks in order to outsource work to India.
