I realized I presented 1/2 of my argument in my last post. I'll keep this one brief.
My health care provider uses a firm in India to read x-rays. Using the internet, x-rays are read in India and the results emailed back
My admiral is an IT manager. She's watched her industry also move to offshore IT management.... via the internet.
Software firms in East Europe are now offering programming products direct to US companies.... via the internet.
Circuit design ---- same thing
Architects... same thing...
Are you suggesting that these are all low skilled or uneducated positions??
Years ago when our experts mapped out a plan to move us from a manufacturing base to a service based economy they could not have foreseen the changes technology has brought to the table.
It is no longer unskilled, blue collar workers being affected. Unfortunately this isn't my opinion, this is what's happening.
We've been lead down a path that is developing into a dead end. Although some are awakening to the situation there is no one addressing it.
