    There has been speculations in the media that Obama is going to take strict actions in the light of bad US economy. He is going to ban outsourcing of jobs to countries out side US, including India. In light of this information Mturk want's to take preemptive action and slowly change it's base to US only because when in future outsourcing is completely banned, it will not effect mturk drastically since they have already changed to a US only base. That's why they are rejecting so many indian accounts.

    So in short pack up your bags and start to move for Obama is going to ban all sorts of outsourcing.

    A plain "NO" to the new workers is understandable but if they decide to get done with all those old ones who"ve been doin this for quite a bit of time is truly unacceptable...

    AAaaah i know the free market Theory...but with such a big mass of workforce from India...Mturk surely is dependent on the nation and its workers on a large extent...Keep us or else ther are some some consequences i foresee

    As mturk is dependent on India, so is US Fortune 500 companies dependent on Wipro and Infosys. If Obama's hard stand on outsourcing will affect such big fish like Wipro and Infosys in india, it is bound to affect small fishes like mturk in India. For the revenue of Wipro and infosys is worth in billions compared to the somewhat misiscule money that mturk makes from India.

    There's pros and cons to every political move. For Americans, this is something that has needed to be done for a long time, but it will affect is in other ways. I personally don't think that completely banning anything is a sound decision, but creating limits and guidelines are necessary. "Give them an inch, they'll take a mile" -- pretty accurate for most people.

    This is not an Anti-Indian point of view, this is a Pro-American position. There are many incredibly smart and talented workers outside the US that this will negatively affect. But when I look at my kids faces, I know I don't want to have to convince them to move overseas to get a decent job. I want them to have no problem finding one here. And not Turking. They will be doctors and lawyers, tyvm.

    I dont think the American economy mishap leading to many people go bankrupt is mainly caused by the money outflow from the nation...Its surely because the tax system aint going fair...to be precise the money collected from the citizens is not fully used for the welfare of the ppl.I don tend to go political in here.....But this article I just read is a bit biased towards the ideologies what the existing President whats to advertise to the public that he would offer so and so if hes kept in by their votes...

    LOL I shouldn't have posted here. Honey I could go on all day with the mishaps of our government and who is to blame for the downfall of our society. We are far from perfect. I think he is making the boldest statement he can because elections are in a couple of months and he wants to rile people up. Although looking who he's up against, I don't think he has to do anything to win. I do think if some kind of ban/limitations do happen, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing for us. Maintaining that upward movement, though, is another story entirely and is not something our government has proven themselves capable of.

    On second thought stopping outsourcing of jobs from US is not such an easy job for Obama. It's not like taking a candy from a kid. Obama has a lot of pressure from US Fortune 500 companies to not touch the outsourcing of jobs to India. Money is king and always be, while Obama will play as a puppet in the hands of those companies. The companies save billions of dollars from outsourcing to Infosys and Wipro and all Obama can do is give lip service to the American public. Anyway he wants to win the next election, so it's obvious that you will listen to more stories like this that he is going to ban outsourcing blah blah blah.

    So in the end, Mturk denying new membeship to Indians remains a mystery!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hahaha don't worry I will never, ever take the position that our government is smart or awesome or moral. Ever. Well, unless some major changes happen, but ell oh fucking ell at that.

    As for mTurk denying new Indian members -- I can't see who stands to gain from that. Requesters can set limits on who they create work for, so completely wiping out new Indian workers doesn't make any sense. Amazon is an American company but they're just the middle man. I could see Indian workers being pushed out eventually, if Amazon is only able to use American requesters and requesters can only use American workers, but even if a ban were to occur it wouldn't be in effect for quite some time so why would they miss out on any money they can get between now and then?

    As to denying new Indian turkers wudnt effect Mturk right now when the requester count piles up they are definitely gona go short of task completers..They need Indians and thats the main reason India is the only non-US nation that gets paid in currency..Lets wait n watch wuts up in store ...

    The article doesn't say he's going to do anything close to banning outsourcing. Even if he was saying that, I wouldn't believe him. Candidate Obama says lots of pro-American things, but President Obama has shown himself to be a pro-wealth hyper-capitalist.

    You're trolling. I'm not sure if you like to make people worry unnecessarily or you just post things for shits and giggles to see if people agree with you.

    Speaking out about the corrupt ones would take me all day hun. It would be much easier to talk about the ones who are not corrupt or at least in politics for themselves instead of the people. Are you ready.....


    The list of politicians who are actually in it for the American people instead of themselves are as follows.....



    Okay, I'm done. Short list huh? LOL
