What’s wrong with outsourcing to India?

It takes jobs away from the US. Often when I have had computer issues I could not understand the person I was talking to. Dell techs are in India now.

Not really fair to them. At one time airline companies had prison inmates making the reservations. Real good idea, the inmates had nothing better to do and they would work for a few dollars a day. Then they discovered they were stealing the credit card information. John P
