We should ban all outsourcing. No outsourcing pony express to the telephone. No outsourcing ledger books to the computers. No outsourcing of US mail services to e-mail.
If you can't adapt, you will die. We are in a period of economic change much akin to the technological changes of the past, and those who fail to adapt will look up one day and realize that the pony express just doesn't ride any more.
totally different.
losing a job to technology, as is happening in manufacturing, is a natural progression of investment to improve productivity. even china is losing manufacturing jobs to this.
the tech jobs the US is losing - aren't being automated out of existence, they are simply being sent somewhere else. in fact, US tech comapnies are growing employment - just not in the US.
There is a fundamental difference between technological improvements such as you cite, and movement of productive assets and jobs to international competitors.
The present moves will injure us, and badly.
