NDIANAPOLIS - Like the auto industry, the computer programming field and the customer-service business, the state of Indiana is outsourcing.

In the two years since Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels took office, the state has leased the 157-mile Indiana Toll Road to an outside company for the next 75 years for $3.8 billion, hired vendors for $1.16 billion over 10 years to process welfare applications, and brought in a company to serve food at a mental hospital. And now Daniels wants to lease the Indiana lottery for at least $1 billion over 10 years and put the money toward education.

Theres something really really wrong when the states are giving our tax dollars to jobs overseas...they don't pay taxes???

this system can't keep going like this
the reason Indiana doesn't have tax dollars cause your outsourcing your jobs which pay for your taxes....

1. This country has gone insane

We've become like the farmer who sells a few acres every year to make ends meet. One day, he wakes up and there is nothing left to sell. He has no food, no water, and no hope. The end is near.

2. It isn't funny really

but in Wisconsin there are some jobs that are now outsourced, which were once part of the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development.....ummmm...does that make sense?
