Isn't it clear that Dean said that just because of people were talking against science and technology(in the sense that there is no future to it)? He must have thought that it would drive people away from FIRST and thought it was necessary to say that.

I disagree with what Dean had to say about outsourcing. It gets down to this. You are Mr. X. You have worked in the XYZ industry for 20 years now. One fine day you get an text message on your cell saying "You're fired". You now go around looking for a new job for 2 years and can't find one. You wife has fallen sick and you have no money to get her treated. You can't afford any insurance. You have sold you car, your house, and all your precious jewelry.

Where is Mr. X headed?

This is just a small story which 1000's of people live.

Let's say you have a job. It's rare that anybody would find a dream job these days. You sit in that small box and go thru hell everyday. I am not even kidding, I have been in such offices and I see no scope of improving. Not to be against a job or anything, but thats just real life. In only about 20% of the offices you would find a OK work enviornment.

Getting back to outsourcing. I love to be in a country like America, and I know many others who do. But people have had to leave this country because their job got out-sourced and they have no source of living. They are forced to leave this country, no matter how much they wish not to. Isn't that pathetic?

How can everybody stay at the top of everything? Those who do I know what their life is like... They spend more time with their boss than their wives. They spend all their life doing something useful, but their life is probably ruined. We need those kinda people just because it would be impossible to grow without them, but they just can't enjoy life.

Speaking of experts, anybody heard of the name Robert Kiyosaki? Here is a quote from him "If you have money you life, if you don't you DIE, its already hapenning in other countries, and it is spreading in America" Robert is a well-known expert in financial stuff, care to argue against an expert?

Sorry if I offended anyone, its just my opinion. I love to see technology grow... but I just can't agree that outsourcing is too good.
