We are not feeding our kids defeatists tripe. We are looking at a Brave New World without a middle-class and wondering what will be best for our children.
Right now, there are thousands of really smart engineers out of work. They are out of work because there are too many visa workers here (1.2 million), there are too many high-tech jobs suddenly being outsourced (millions in the next few years) and there is an overall recession.
The steelworkers, automotive workers (watch a rerun of "Mr. Mom" again), the manufacturing jobs went first. Now it is high-tech, next accounting and it goes on. One corporate exec said that any job behind a desk can be easily outsourced. The rest can be handled by visa workers.
So, what can we do? Write to congress and the whitehouse.
"Buy American" and tell others.
I'll scare you some more. Right now the databases with the records of your medical, credit card, banking, insurance, telecommunications are being run and accessed by foreigners in foreign countries. Think identify theft is a problem now? Wait until we cannot even get to the perpetrators because they are overseas. Think that India and China might be more accessible to terrorists for some cyber terrorism? I do.
