No. Worked for large securities clearing firms. Clients in the next room, down the street, across the country, around the world.
You are, however, providing a higher skill level service, locally and internationally... not the norm for average Americans providing services...far from it.
Probably.
Most lower skilled services are generated and provided locally at the clients work site....which is usually within a regional commute radius. ..although interstate trucking would be one exception.
Yes, and these services are less likely to compete with foreign providers.
If Americans are better educated and harder working...what do we want with foreign services anyways?
We'd be providing to them.
How do they compete with us..and how do they trade their local services globally...if not physically relocating to the client country?
Insurance, accounting, investment services are just a few examples that can all be provided from around the world.
I might compromise on services in trade...if the number of service positions on each side of the equation was balanced...equal numbers. For every service worker admitted to US from a CAFTA country...an equal number of service workers from America go down there.
See above.
