THIS.

My undergraduate thesis was a defense of outsourcing and offshoring American labor, saying companies didn’t need more regulation or oversight because it stifled business. After going through graduate school and getting an MBA, I shifted to the left and couldn’t believe I’d been so wrong. I’m more liberal now after business school than I was as a garden variety college student. Funny how that works.

I honestly don’t see how a globalized labor market is consistent with any sensible economic policy in the developed world. It is just not possible for somewhat lower prices on goods to compensate for the earnings lost as jobs go elsewhere.
