Is there a master list somewhere of corporations that have shipped jobs overseas?

[Donnachaidh]

Has any site tried to compile which companies have shipped a third or better of their jobs out of the US?

I'm just curious if that info is out there.

1. No such list.

2. Just assume they all have.

Question is - if nothing was shipped overseas in the way of jobs to provide products and services to the US could you afford those products and services whilst maintaining acceptable labour rates ?

6. That's an absurd way of looking at it.

If all the jobs are shipped overseas then no American will be able to afford anything.

Plus outsourcing isn't about making things more affordable, it's about making more profit.

4. It'd probably be easier to come up with a list

of those corps which haven't shipped jobs overseas.

7. Lou Dobbs kept such a list when he was at CNN...

9. OMG! That's A LOT of jobs being exported. Can we do something about it?

10. Tax policy might help, among other things...

You know, stop making it profitable to export jobs, and instead make it decidedly UNprofitable. Take a real hard, long look at NAFTA, CAFTA, and their brethren. Support FAIR Trade instead of FREE trade. Heck, you know the list...:-)

There are several things we, as a nation, COULD do. Absolutely none of which, we WILL do, because these same companies, even if they do nothing else, make big campaign contributions.

11. Wow - just about every company I've ever heard of, plus countless I haven't! nt
