27. "improve the job skills of our own people"

with regards to the IT industry, I would say that she may have a point but there are so many here who have the education and still can't get the jobs because the Indians will come over here on special visas and work for much lower wages than we will. It's a bunch of b.s.!

Then if she is talking about the call centers, well, please.... most of our workers with minimal training could do those jobs! It's just the corporations are money hungry assholes who don't want to pay a living wage.
