Re: Anyone had firsthand experience with Panniculitis/lymphoedema?

And I agree with you on that point. It could have been a nice food for
thought discussion, but somebody turned it into Rae being a reverse racist
(using my own phrase here) and just made the whole topic ugly.

By the way, I have looked at a bunch of pages on offshoring and its
definition and while some may say it is automatically any business shipped
overseas....in almost every instance the mention of LOWER COST LABOR is
mentioned. I still believe that no matter what the term started out meaning
it has evolved into those three words being a major factor in how it's
thought of these days.

Honestly, what does any MT who hears the term offshoring think of? India,
shoddy work, crap wages. Am I wrong? Now, my sub's work is exceptional, and
she is definitely not paid crap wages...and she's not in India. I'm not
trying to say I'm not offshoring in a sense, because I am with it leaving
the borders, but she pays U.S. taxes on the 1099 I send her and she pays
Swedish taxes on the same money. She is a very conscientious tax-minded
person and believes very much in paying what she's supposed to. Would I have
really been expected to just cut her loose because she was going to spend
six months of a year in Sweden?
