Putting a Human Face on Outsourcing (TechNews.com)

The Faces of the Jobless Recovery

A good read as usual by Webb. I like the WSJ stuff too. GIGO on the data. This article brings up some of the hysteria about this phenomenon known aas offshoring. Not to say that there is no pain in all of this, but some of the quotes sound like repeats of the auto industry 30 years ago. (And I'm sure 100 years ago about the shift from agriculture to the industry)

The Fast Company article makes it sound like a coming plague. I'm not sure that this is ture, but it will be the challenge for the labor unions :)

We could also solve this problem through greater immigration. Why not have those folks that we're offshoring to come to the States and become citizens here? They'd pay taxes and we'd get lower costs on there goods and services. Plus we get that immigrant energy that America was built upon. I'm not sure which is a greater problem, getting new immigration policy through Washington or telling U.S. Business to spend more money on something that they don't need.
