That doesn't change the fact that there will be less high paying jobs for the blue collar class to move into. Expanding the middle class is good for everyone and reducing it hurts everyone trying to make a better living. The American Dream is achieved through upward mobility and offshoring eviscerates it.

As I just told another . The majority of the blue collar workers were 50 or just not college material. For the most part they were NEVER going to move into technical jobs .There was no place for them to go. They WERE the middle class, making enough to have a house and a picket fence and send the kids to college. They are no longer middle-class. What made America different was the large middle class. That will soon be the history of America as we become like Mexico and other 3rd world nations. Two classes ..rich and poor.

The very scary thing is the traditional door to upper middle class status is now being shut.

I have an engineer son. He had thought he could have a family and live a comfortable life. Now he wonders where he will go when they outsource.

I am angry !
