Do you have dependents or a mortgage riding on that paycheck?  Have you 
spent 10, 15, or 20 years refining your craft?  Once you are heavily 
invested, this is not a academic paper on labor and trade practices, but 
an honest-to-God, real-life, bank-repossessing, heart-ache and despair 
situation.

I do not advocate protectionist policies and certainly think the Indians 
are just as entitled to compete for those jobs as we are, but if the 
answer is "Suck it up, it's a dog-eat-dog world out there" then we might 
as well drop ALL pretenses of civility and regress to might-makes-right 
rules.

And "free-trade" is for corporate shills trying to bleed every penny out 
of a "human resource."  It should be about "fair trade".  After all, 
this lowers prices, but does it seem right to you?
