Alex, it is not a matter of keeping Americans employed. My first concern is my bottom line. During the tech boom, I opened an office in Vancouver because in Dallas starting programmers were wanting $75K+. I could hire a good immigrant programmer in Canada for half that. Sounds like smart business to me.

Aaron, we are fully staffed in the marketing dept. right now. I will even be in Cancun in the new role of Special Marketing Asst.
Sorry I don't concur with you on that Brad.....I can do fine with one Mercedes as opposed to 4 as well as 2 homes as opposed to 4.

Funny thing is I wasn't even born in the states. I just went to school here and recognize that in oeder to keep the economy rolling it is better to employ within your own country so they can spend that money here.

Problwm with US businesses, they are to greedy...
All executives line their pocket with more green than they can ever spend.

Smart business to you seems a little narrow minded rather than looking at the overall picture.

Just my opinion.
