We are a GLOBAL economy that is based on information. Call it Post Industrial. Information moves at the speed of light.
Pretending we Americans live in a giant castle surrounded by a huge Moat (aka Oceans) isn't going to protect us from what is happening elsewhere. Offshoring is going to kill our economy.
We have a dying generation who still sees the economy as post WWII, because that is the world we grew up in (Last of the boomers here).
We had better get used to it. Build things better, faster, cheaper.
