I suppose it was seeing the Kerry-Edwards bumper sticker on a Hyundai that got me wondering – what’s the difference when a company “outsources” jobs overseas and when someone buys a product made overseas. I ask this as an ardent free trader. Really, what’s the difference when a company looks at the options, and decides it is in their best interest to buy the time of a worker overseas, and when a person looks at the options, and decides it is in their best interest to but the product of a worker overseas. Same difference really, isn’t it?
