I wouldn't know of such things.
Other than of having an economic agenda, that's painfully obvious.
Businesses tend to follow the money trail. In the current economic climate there is simply little to no motivation to confine ones business inside of a country with stagnant growth and higher wage demands.
Yes, many of them are merely machines, making decisions for us spare parts.
We human beings are completely without a say in the matter whatsoever.
You're happy with that?
Not to mention the likely result of your ideal Darwinian free scenario would lead to higher prices for consumers of each and every wage grouping.
Even the lowest price is too high for the unemployed.
Get everyone employed again, and then wage-earners will tell the market how high it can set the prices.
Until then we have too many have-nots.
And again, what's with the polemic dualism extremism tendency of yours -- "Darwinian free"? You must be a winger .. that "centrist" label
can't be right.
I said "less", not "free".
Regardless, your conclusion still remains presumptive and questionable.
No, it was terribly misplaced.
Actually it was spot on, as it was based on the meaningful facts that analogously presented the truth of the matter.
Your turn.
It seems as if you have omitted the 90's from that particular excerpt? Any reason for that?
No.
No purposeful omission, just a focus on sub-primers who really didn't exist much before the 1990's.
But the 1990's did bring us NAFTA. Even liberals like Pres. Clinton screwed the pooch on that one .. but, then again, Multi-Cultural Internationalists are all for the in- and out- sourcing of American jobs, and Clinton, at heart, is indeed that.
The vast majority of American unemployment since the Reagan corporate socialist movement can be attributed to in- and out- sourcing American jobs to wage-slaves.
"Stolen" as if all jobs are pre destined to be US bound?
Again with the extremist polarizing hyperbole.
If it's to be sold in America and can be made in America and was made in America, yeah, it should continue to be made by Americans.
That's simply normal, balanced thinking.
When those jobs are stolen by wage slaves and their owners, it is simply that: theft of an entitlement of
American citizenship.
Only wingnuts deny the reality of it.
As if labor markets should opt for stagnation in lieu of modernization and expansion?
Your phrase here is meaningless extreme jargon, a euphemism for condoning
wage-slave labor at the expense of American jobs.
You argue so in favor of such egregious behavior, I can't help but wonder if you're profiting by it, by the suffering of your fellow Americans.
It is simply the creation of a false dichotomy to say that we can't employ all Americans without harming the economy, though, true, that might result in some loss of obscene profits of the rabid dog-eating dogs.
The sub prime collapse was precipitated upon many unique circumstances outside of the realm of that particular phenomena.
Or, as your nebulous meaningless statement here void of specific details
truly reveals ..
Chalking up the entire collapse, or even the bulk of it to outsourcing is downright foolish.
.. It was indeed all about the sub-prime securities fiasco
directly precipitated by the en masse loss of sub-primers jobs in the ramping up of extreme Darwinian competition embodied in in- and out- sourcing of their jobs that caused these sub-primers to default on their mortgages, mortgages that were deceiptfully packaged in "securities" and sold about here and in Europe, the first wave of revealed worthlessness occurring in August-September 2008, exemplifying The Great Recession.
What's foolish is to ignore the reality of that just because one has a profit-making agenda vested interest in continuing to have their fellow Americans' jobs stolen from them via in- and out-sourcing to wage-slaves.
