I wanted to bring this up to the top so it wouldn't get lost down below.    You basically said that US editing of offshore work was not going to stop.  Is this per demand of the client?  They want offshore rates but good quality?  Why do you give them both when it hurts your bottom line?  The biggest mistake the MTSOs make is agreeing to this.  I believe if the cheap client wants offshore rates they should get exactly what they pay for, including editing done by the offshore contractor.  If they want quality, they need to pay for that quality.  It's more than past time for all MTSOs to stand firm on this.
