It's Mercantilism; not laziness thats destroying the Amercian Economy
The bottom line is this.
1) Corporations can only see as far as the next quarters Financials and will therefore make moves & changes based on how those affect these financials.
2) If something can be run, done, made or processed cheaper overseas then a corporation will move to do that overseas.
3) So long as those operating within the US have to comply with environmental restrictions, labor regulations, fees & licensing costs that those operating outside the US do NOT have to deal with or comply with then we will continue to see jobs and processes moved over seas. Every country with an excessively high amount of regulations and rules designed to drive up business costs will see a similar move of jobs and work to other countries where these excessive costs do not exist.
4) This movement of work from the US to outside the US will continue so long as #3 is true and until there are no more customers (or more accurately no more money in the hands of those consumers) left inside the US to sell goods to.
5) Once #4 runs its course the US will revert to a third world nation in which the very rich and powerful are at the top and all others are way down at the very bottom.
India workers are NOT better than their American counterparts the simply can be rented by corporations for a lot less then US based workers and that is not simply the fault of the US worker demanding higher wages. In fact if a US worker wanted to be paid the same as their India counterpart there are just way to many other factors not controlled by the employee that are involved in the decision to move the job overseas.
If you want o read more about what is going on and how Americas economy is being destroyed while its being spun that it?s the fault of a lazy American workforce then read about Mercantilism at Wikipedia. The practice of Mercantilism is how China is able to experience economic prosperity (even if it is mainly the government and not the citizens that are seeing the benefits) while America is seeing an economic down turn, one that will eventually make us into a China like country where the government controls all.
