Filed Under (The Medical) by Admin on 27-09-2009

This is a real thought provoking article and offers some very scary ideas, but some thoughts are things we are already seeing today.  I have embedded the entire article below to read.  I read it through and read it again.  Are we slowing eroding here to have all the work and jobs move offshore, a lot already has moved from the US and you would have to be living under a rock or never read the news to be aware of that factor.image
