> PS They have better conditions and pay in my country. It still isn't great. Again due to lack of leverage since a lot of them are migrants.

Took a while to guide to horse to water. We circled back to what I said from the first comment [0]: the lowest end jobs have very low salaries because these people have no leverage (multitude of factors, some of which I listed), not because of offshoring. This situation holds true even from jobs that are safe from offshoring.

> a) Stop projecting

> I'm sure you're supportive of that eroded lack of leverage but don't project it onto me.

The old "You don't project onto me! I project onto you!". But somehow you managed to screw up even your diss at me. Supporting the "eroded lack of leverage" means supporting the leverage. Maybe you wanted to say I "support the lack of leverage". I'm a strong supporter of everyone being able to have a good life, whether they do a job locally or from offshore. I won't get into that discussion because I don't think you care that much for anything more complex than grandparent stories.

So I'm sorry Mario but your reasoning skills are in another castle.
