The Bottom Line (Score 2, Insightful)

Labor is no different from any other good. Americans happily reap the benefits of cheap imported products, yet are outraged when firms do the same with jobs. This is not to say that firms have license to act amorally and disregard the impact of their decisions on real people; in fact, people--American or otherwise--will benefit most in the long run from open borders and free trade of all goods, including labor. At the very worst, offshoring is merely a short-term "growing pain" of the global economy. Realistically, it is a desirable step in that direction.
