I created the www.OutsourceRandy.com website as a fun way to bring attention to a serious subject -- outsourcing of good USA jobs -- and put a spotlight on the hypocrisy of ex-Wall Street banker Randy Altschuler's attempt to convince New Yorker's to trust him with their votes and send him to Congress. Since then, all that Altschuler's campaign does is call me a racist. Never once does he have the balls to respond directly to the well-documented outsourcing charges I make. So I made this video to state my position clearly and once again invite Randy Altschuler to respond to my challenge in an earlier video, namely: I'll send over a camera crew and film his response to and then post -- in UNEDITED fashion -- his answers to the questions I pose here. I won't hold my breath waiting for this to happen, however. I am from New York and am starting a new business in NY. I created this message because I care about the future of my 4-year old daughter, Emma. She can't vote. You can!

One thing I think everybody knows right now is that the federal government actually is hiring people, and there's some things that everybody needs to know about applying for a job or finding out what jobs are available with the federal government. First, you don't have to pay for information about what federal jobs exist. You don't have to pay to apply. All of this information is available for free at usajobs.gov. That's the free site and it's the real deal. It has all of the jobs that are available. There's a special kind of scam that we know about for postal jobs. There's a scam that says, you know, pay money and we ensure that you will pass the test that you need to pass, and then you'll be able to get a postal job. Don't fall for that either. If you're interested in a job with the United States Postal Service, go to their website. All the information you need is there free, and don't ever pay anybody any money to get you a job with the US Postal Service.
