U.S. Chamber of Commerce
What are the Choices for American Technical Professionals in this Election?
Submitted by admin on Mon, 11/01/2010 - 11:49The answer is not much. Still, some evils are a little worse than other ones. ComputerWorld wrote about how this election will stack up for American Technical Professionals. The offshore outsourcing rhetoric is on maximum high, yet we know Democrats will pass Comprehensive immigration reform, with an agenda to labor arbitrage United States working professionals. Their agenda is just as much as Republicans and Tea Partiers will offshore outsource your job (and also vote for more labor arbitrage through so called immigration reform).

Submitted by mayday on Fri, 10/15/2010 - 23:48Think Progress has finally exposed the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as being anything but American. In ‘U.S.’ Chamber Of Commerce Funded By Top Offshoring Companies:
The Chamber’s anti-American jobs agenda serves not only the profit-seeking of right-wing corporate executives in the United States, but also works to send jobs overseas to the following outsourcing companies, who are some of the dozens of foreign corporations that pay member dues to the Chamber of Commerce’s 501c(6) account, which is used to fund its political ads:
– InfoSys, Bangalore, India (at least $15,000 in annual member dues): “Infosys is the ‘Best Outsourcing Partner’ according to the Waters Rankings for the third consecutive year.”
– KPIT Cummins, Pune, India ($7,500): “Strategic global networking, together with industry-proven practices & processes, give KPIT Cummins a cutting edge in the realm of outsourcing.”
