James McGovern talks about outsourcing in India (et. al.), and makes a snap judgement based on an utter lack of historical awareness:
People are poor if they have to purchase their basic needs at high prices no matter how much income they make. Take the case of India. Because of cheap food and fibre being dumped by developed nations and lessened trade protections enacted by the government, farm prices in India are tumbling, which means that the country’s peasants are losing $26 billion U.S. each year.
So.... The migration of industries like textiles and heavy manufacturing from England to the US in the 19th century did long term damage to the US? Sheesh - I wish people had some base awareness of what's happened in the past before they started making sweeping generalizations.
