Who do you suppose offshored our jobs while protecting their backyards? I'm guessing that it was rich people running corporations.

- snapplebobapple 4y agoNimbyism is caused by the vast majority of property ownere, not just rich people. If you own already rampant price increases are a positive feature not a cost (atleast in most property owners minds). Outsourcing was just the likely correct thing to do in that context. It raised more people from abject poverty than all the foreign aide we funded by a large margin. The context now is more complicated and muddy because, while the ussr seemed to prove outsourcing creates a middle class that can topple bad regimes, china proves those regimes can maintain control by not losing their resolve for bloodshed.
