By The New American The New American, February 9, 2004
CNN’s Lou Dobbs Tonight has been one of the very few network programs that have challenged the reigning wisdom on trade and immigration policies, with Dobbs’ regular reports on the social and economic impact of illegal immigration and his "Exporting America" series. In October 2003, researchers at the University of California-Berkeley released a study predicting that as many as 14 million white-collar U.S. jobs could be outsourced to foreign countries in the next 10 years. Recently, Dobbs posted a list of over 150 major U.S. companies that are leading the outsourcing boom. They include: 3Com, 3M, Aetna, Alamo Rent-A-Car, Albertson’s, AT&T, Bank of America, Bell South, Best Buy, Boeing, Capital One, Charles Schwab, Citigroup, Dell Computer, Delta Airlines, Earthlink, ExxonMobil, Ford Motor, Gateway, General Electric, Goldman Sachs, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Levi Strauss, Linksys, Lowes, Lucent, Maytag, Microsoft, Motorola, Northwest Airlines, Office Depot, Oracle, Prudential Insurance, Raytheon Aircraft, Sprint, State Farm Insurance, Time Warner, Unisys, Verizon, and Yahoo.
