I've been seeing more articles about Americans feeling betrayed or dismayed about corporate layoffs. And there has been pressure from Washington to artificially deflate the unemployment figures by hiring Americans instead of foreigners. But at what cost? Regardless of the economic situation, all companies should hire the most qualified individuals. There should be no quotas for ethnicity or any other uncontrollable factors. For some jobs, foreigners may be more efficient or better equipped.
Simply put, if you don't get a job, or are fired, you should ask yourself, "HOW CAN I IMPROVE so I get the job next time?". Or, how can we improve our primary education system so that we produce the best college students?
Competition is good - it makes us realize our mistakes. Use these tough times to learn from the past. Do you really want to repeat this mess all over again?
