outsourcing
i just came across a great article in july's wired about outsourcing explaining in techie terms the argument that outsourcing creates more, not fewer, jobs. they write that although there will be a shake-out, where some "people will be too old, too inflexible, or otherwise unable to find new work", on the whole outsourcing creates jobs. they claim that outsorcing alone created 90,000 jobs in the us in 2003. why? they argue that firms save money outsourcing, and are then able to expand production and also create new jobs in other sectors such as marketing and research.
