I know it picked up with NAFTA and Clinton, but that was just the beginning.

Now companies get tax breaks for locating offshore.

I am looking for stats, charts, reports, anything that will but this in context.

Thanks.

1. 1-800-JOB-GONE
The calls are answered in a boilerroom in Delhi, though.

2. Well, it is hard to be sure!

This explains why it is so hard to find a definitive number: http://www.americanprogress.org/site/pp.asp?c=biJRJ8OVF&b=100515

Here are the numbers (all over the park) that I could find: http://www.rescueamericanjobs.org/articles/index.php?info=offshore-outsourcing-jobs-statistics-offshore-facts


Edited for pre-coffee typos (any excuse is better than none!)

3. The Infinitely Damning Fact...
...that accurate numbers DON'T exist proves just how malevolently indifferent the DemoPublican politicians in this country are to the well-being of American workers.
