250: Transportation Sexual Assault (TSA)
Obama India Trip, Arms Sales, Job Offshoring
President Obama's trip to India is framed as a massive sales mission for the U.S. defense industry, involving $10 billion in equipment. The hosts argue that the "job creation" narrative hides the reality of further offshoring and outsourcing to Indian firms like Tata Consultancy Services. They also discuss a proposal to link the social security systems of India and the U.S., allowing temporary visa workers to draw American benefits.
