Nothing to fear from Outsourcing
I haven't really bought into the sky is falling outsourcing paranoia peddled by Lou Dobbs every night on CNN and his protectionist sympathizers. Projecting dire consequences by connecting a few dots on a graph and drawing a straight line into the far future is an old standby of sensationalist journalism.
Fresh out of the overly optimistic "New Economy" bubble, is outsourcing or off-shoring the overly pessimistic new "new economy?" Perhaps Not. Danieal Drezner has a more reasonable voice on the issue.
