    What are you paying for outsourced overseas techs?

    I've got the lowest at $7.50 /hr now. And someone told me today that's still paying too much for India.

            I pay my two techs here in Brazil R$400 month.

            They work 6 days a week.

            That's about $140

              Thats way too much. They dont make shit over there.

              They work a week at that rate and their making more than they would in a month normally.

                      Cheap fucker. You go apeshit over a few dogs getting killed and yet somehow you can justify keeping a human being in poverty.

                          How is he "keeping a human being in poverty"?
                          I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                          I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

                            Paying $7.50 an hour and looking to pay less. Don't give me that bullshit about how they are living like kings on that money either because I don't buy it.

                              The average person in India makes about $3,000 a year.

                              By paying $7.50 an hour, KRL is providing someone with an income of about $15,000 a year.

                              Would it be better if he didn't employ someone in India at all?

                                Try going...

                                Anyone making as much as a grand a month lives like a king, especially in the more rural areas.

                                  People like krl are filled with pure greed.

                                  They care about no others.

                                  They 'claim' to spend millions on domains and then can't even hire a real American to do work for them.

                                  This is exactly what's wrong with America.

                                  People like krl need to be shipped overseas.

                                  The jobs need to be kept in America.

                                  A lot of people in the US would LOVE to make 15k a year working from home on a computer.

                                    I don't give a flying fuck. It doesn't change the fact that they go home to some shitty tin shack in a diseased slum. And I highly doubt that the worker would get all that money, most likely an agency is taking a cut. So once again the rich get richer, the poor stay poor, but the fucking dogs in Korea have someone looking out for them.

                                      you need to do some research,. currently you just look like an ass

                                      there was an article about this subject on /. last week. I told my boss i'd move to india for a year so long as they paid me the same.

                                        Sure, move to India. I hope you enjoy the contaminated water.

                                          you do realize of course that not everyone here lives in the US right? You sound like the stereotypical dipshit american. Think more, type less.

                                            For the record, I pay $4 an hour for my employees in the Philipenes.

                                            I'm a willing buyer of their services and they're a willing seller. I don't put a gun to their heads and force them to work. They want to work, and they're willing to do it for $4 a hour.

                                            I'm happy to be providing them with employment, and they tell me all the time how much they like working for me.
                                            I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,

                                              For the record, I pay $4 an hour for my employees in the Philipenes.

                                              I'm a willing buyer of their services and they're a willing seller. I don't put a gun to their heads and force them to work. They want to work, and they're willing to do it for $4 a hour.

                                              I'm happy to be providing them with employment, and they tell me all the time how much they like working for me.

                                                Over 2 Million American jobs have been lost in the last few years.

                                                How many because of Greed?

                                                How many daily jobs that should be given to Americans are being lost due to Greed?

                                                  Are you aware that they would be going home to an even shittier tin shack in an even more diseased slum if it wasn't for people like KRL providing them with employment?

                                                    Yeah, he's saving the world. What about the Americans that go home to shitty houses in depressed slums? As stated earlier, $7.50 an hour would go a long way there as well.

                                                      People like krl need to be taking care of Americans in his own country instead of supporting 3rd world countries.

                                                      How you can say it's anything but greed is beyond me.

                                                      Millions of people are jobless in the US while people like krl try to save a few bucks so he can afford his next Million Dollar domain name.

                                                      GREED

                                                      It's a sad day when Americans stop caring about each other.

                                                            I employ nobody overseas. If I have oustide work I give it to friends. I prefer to know that the worker is getting all of the money instead of a meager cut.

You can buy the same product (labor) for much less in another country, and any good businessman would take advantage of that.

If I pay less labor, I make more. If I make more, I can spend more on shit that I want, thereby increaseing consumer spending. Which is good for the economy. Even if I buy items made in other countries, we still win.
