so, what if?

you are talking talk. No one is going to "take a stand." We are all too busy trying to make some money so that we can live. This is the future and there is not a thing any of us can do about it. We won't do anything about it. Like I said, we cannot all refuse to work, we need money. Also, there are many MTs who support this new change and will not stand on the side of those who don't. Then, even if US MTs took a stand, they would just off shore more work and have it done overseas. You are in a losing battle. The best bet is to go with the flow and try to learn as much as you can. Our jobs will never be gone, they will be different. There will still be a need for us in some capacity. You just have to decide if you want to be a part of it or not.
