As usual, Trump haters don't have all the facts. Trump has mentioned India in many of his rallies. Try to keep up.

meaningless babble of hate

So you validated Trumps point, right after you've argued he's wrong? That seems pretty silly..
Anyone from Hershey, Disney, or Ford currently running for president?

A lot of the offshoring in software development is going to Eastern Europe now. malaysia is another country, anywhere engineers are cheap. It's not that Americans don't have the skills, we just aren't the right price.
All the politicians say they want to stop offshoring, (BO sure did when he was trying to get elected the first time) they won't/can't. But they all take the dollars from the corporations that send the jobs away don't they?

Americans are losing the skills. No entry-level jobs to provide experience and filter out the unsuitable. But that Q3 balance sheet showed massive savings and hey, companies aren't about making stuff and serving customers, they're about making the stockholders happy, amirite?

Part of me says that it is a good thing to offload routine programming work and use the freed up time to let engineers to innovate but I am not sure that is what they are doing.

If they were, you'd look like an idiot trying to portray them as failures..

Thats ok though, the left never minds looking dumb.
