OT Food for thought

I don't often find myself in agreement with Thomas Friedman and I'm
not sure if I'll end up agreeing with this column, but it did cause
me to think of outsourcing in a different way. This will be of little
consolation to those whose jobs have disappeared, but it is food for
thought.

Dateline 2012

In an expected move most large US corporations announced that they
were following the logical trend and outsourcing all of their
customers to Europe and Asia.

One source was quoted as saying:

"It's a dynamic new business model, since we offshored our jobs to
India and the Phillipines there aren't enough US consumers left that
can afford our products.

Fortunately, Europe protects their worker's jobs so they can still
purchase, and now that the incomes of the south and east Asians have
increased dramatically, due to Offshoring, we see tham as an exciting
new market."
