Too bad Intel hires almost all its work force from India and China.

American Socialist--
Do you work there, that you would know that? I did for two years (Fab 22A construction engineer--Ocotillo campus), and I can tell you that it was one of the greatest jobs I ever had in 35+ years working in the local semiconductor industry. I interfaced with employees at every level on a daily basis, from top management to the workers on the line. Intel's workforce is diverse, and made up primarily of very bright Americans whose ethnicity is representative of the local community at large. I was proud and happy to be there, as were pretty much everyone else I talked to. If you have that qualifications, why don't you go and give them a try--otherwise you are speaking from ignorance and you might consider keeping that ignorance to yourself.

'Too bad Intel hires almost all its work force from India and China. '
Wow, you Socialists are never happy. Here is a company investing in America and all you can do is make Racist comments. If they outsource, they are evil and greedy. If they 'insource', they hire people with wrong color skin. Probably non-union too, right?
Are you upset because Intel is doing it without the guidance and intervention of the all-knowing Government? Wait, they DID build that.
