I think there can be great benefit of outsourcing work to other places, provided that it's done smartly. Businesses can use it as a strategic advantage in addition to a cost cutting measure. US workers are just gonna have to get used to the new flat, yo. It's just how it is now. We are all competing for the same work, and outsourcing is just part of that natural evolution.
I agree with the benefits of outsourcing, my issue is the great difference in labor cost, makes us outsource more that doesn't make rational sense. Such as growing vegetables, or growing chickens, then shipping across the ocean, processed, and shipped back for sale here.
