Seems like you may have missed the whole, "Give a man a fish..." thing growing up.

Not GP, but there is a sliver of sound logic in the call to put your money where your mouth is.

Why not start a charity/non-profit that assists such victims of outsourcing? I'd think unemployment benefits were supposed to do that. And that is not too far from you, me and all other taxpayers writing a check to such folks. Is it?

Not the GP, but because starting a charity/non-profit that's worth a damn takes a ridiculous amount of work, and in areas I'm not terribly proficient in, and I have a plethora of other things that I would like to do with my limited time on earth.

I already have about 100+ things I'd love to create, contribute to, or accomplish, if only I had the time and money to do so. I do what I can, but that list just keeps growing, not shrinking.
