Outsourced in Iowa
by Chris Antonneau—Iowa
We were out talking to folks in Marion, Iowa about the outsourcing of American jobs. I ran into a middle-aged gentleman that told me about his recent employment. A few months back he quit a job he worked for many years because he was so upset about the amount of jobs they were shipping overseas. He can’t understand why they would continue to outsource without doing everything they could to provide that job to an American. Since he was well-qualified he did not have a hard time finding a similar position. It is a shame he had to quit his job he loved because of unfair business practices and corporate greed.

I am a 55 year old female who cannot find a job–basically because age discrimination against “older workers” is to blatant–who says we “older workers” have nothing to offer? I also live in a state that is “right to work” which means workers here have no rights–RTW laws need to be outlawed. Furthermore, the minimum wage needs to be increased to “lving standards” and given a cost of living increase every January 1.
