The cost of computers would be higher, so U.S. business could not enhance productivity, grow and hire workers. Plus, U.S. computer makers would be priced out of the market and forced to fire workers." (TECH CENTRAL STATION) The author contends that politicians like Sen. John Kerry, Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Jon Corzine, who have backed legislation limiting outsourcing, have in turn "put America in peril" by fanning the "flames of protectionist anger" which could result in "a reversal of the global movement toward open trade, which has been a boon to America."| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due |
