You know it's strange because I can only ever find people arguing this when they know they won't be the ones to be out of a job. Aka this forum is pretty open to the idea of people being displaced but go check out some of the threads here about H1Bs, there's a lot of vehement opposition there. Or for a hypothetical, imagine we were able to import or outsource our politicians to cheaper politicians in India. How quickly do you think that market would be closed off? Yet we abstract ourselves away from the problem and declare that maybe if all these people suffer we'll be better off for it in the end. In society we make those tradeoffs, that's reality but once we start sacrificing more and larger groups surely we come to a point where we realize maybe it's not actually worth it?
