Ray, is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Paul laments on the theme of our jobs are being exported:

"Don't think for a minute that this can't happen to every one of us.

Look at what happened to the auto and steel industries in the 70's,
the
semiconductor industry in the 80's, the electronics business in the
90's.
Practically NOBODY manufactures anything here anymore."


Let's not forget the recent rash of Help-desk and/or Customer Service
centers that have recently/are currently moved/moving overseas. The next
big rush is to move the back-office process overseas (Accounting, HR, etc.).
