Look at the types of industry in the article. These are unionized industries.

As the article did point out certain industries - I got the gist of the article as the sheer number of jobs being lost and not replaced. Now once again, not all jobs that go overseas is unionized - not by a long shot. Therefore, you cannot lay this at the feet of the evil unions. AS popular as it was a few years ago, it is just outdated.

How do you explain the loss of non-union jobs - what did they do wrong that they deserved to loose their jobs?

"What did they do wrong to deserve to lose their jobs?"

Forgive me, but I would expect something like that at DU, not here. Capital flow isn't about what someone deserves to be doing with their lives. I began finding myself less employable
when I crossed fifty years of age. Now I am looking at an uplanned, early retirement. My skills never stopped improving yet I am forced out of my industry at the height of my abilities. To use words like 'wrong' and 'deserve' when dealing with marketplace realities is too far to the left for me.
