Such as shoes, garments, steel, and now IT sofware and engineering.

Quite right you are. Needed products produced inefficiently expose those who produce them to the buffeting winds of change. I believe the first census in 1790 showed 90% of the population were farmers. Today, it's what? 2% or so? Oh dear, what are all those non-farmers doing? Congress needs to investigate. What did the Oracle Marx have to say about this insufferable injustice?

Inefficiently? Because we can have the labor performed cheaply abroad?

Hey - how about firing all our soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen and replace them with foreign labor (i.e., Hessians, French Foreign Legion)?
