America has been exporting jobs in manufacturing to China eversince The
Great Nixon visited that country. Today almost all manufactured goods,
including American flags, even the underwear that average US person wears
(and perhaps even Mr. Bush, if he wears one) comes from there. Nobody cried
then? Why all of a sudden this cry about high-tech/call center jobs going to
India? Where does the concept of "globalization" originate? Or does the
'globalization' just means US taking advantage of sweat shops in China?
I liked the later part of the article much better than the opening
paragraph.
