<p>–we need as many as it takes to understand the topic. </p>
<p>My IT job was downsized due to something called outsourcing and I am trying to figure it all out. I am not the only one, too, that this happened to. Also, my hs sr son is seriously thinking on embarking on a similar path. At the top of this thread mathauburb points some hi tech paths that might be subject to this outsourcing phenomenon in the next 8, 10 yrs. These paths in fact are the ones that my son is interested in pursuing now, EE CS, CpE.</p>
<p>So we need more light , more understanding on the subject. I dare say the subject is all understood , figured out and, more important, ACCEPTABLE. One of the reasons to to get more understanding on a subject such as this is to try to amend or fix it IF it is discovered to be broken - hey, htat is what a good engineer does - fix problems. THe kids of today are going to be leadibng the world later, and they should try to improve on and do it better than the status quo.</p>
<p>let more light be shed on the subject. If someone has got it all figured out and does not want to read more on the subject, then do nt click and go on to another subject that needs discovery and clarification.</p>
