California Job Outsourcing
Douglas Chick

Arnold Schwarzenegger, or the “Outsource-engger” vetoed three separate bills that would have prohibited the state of California from spending state funds with companies that practice overseas job outsourcing. California, famous for housing the largest population of undocumented foreign workers in the United States, has further weakened their job economy by using state tax money to pay companies to outsource even more jobs. 

There has to be a formula that diagrams just how many jobs can be given to overseas workers before federal tax dollars will have to subsidize it. Once it catches on, it will undoubtedly reduce our tax base and taxes will have to be raised on those that still have jobs in America.

Tom Krazit from NetworkWorldFusion online magazine has quoted Schwarznegger from his website as stating,

“In today’s global economy, the best approach to create and enhance job growth in California is to provide a competitive business environment. In order to improve their competitiveness in a global market, California businesses cannot be penalized with punitive policies restricting their ability to make decisions on how to best perform and provide goods or services for state government and our consumers,"

I admit that I’m a simple man, and economics is a little abstract for me, but isn’t sending jobs away to enhance job growth to a region, a little like selling off all of your livestock at a cheaper and discounted price, so you can purchase more at a much larger price?

Whatever the outcome, I’m sure all of those that voted for Schwarznegger, at least their jobs will be safe…right? And if not, did the people of California really think it was going to stop when they outsourced their governor?
