I c...Interesting take on out sourcing/off shoring.<br /><br />I can tell you that with the internet this generation of US college and post-college age kids is quite adventuresome. I moved to Buenos Aires 10 years ago, and when I told people where I was going, they just sort of looked at me like "what?"<br /><br />Now I can't go around the block to get a carton of milk without hearing someone speaking English.<br /><br />But as for the essential argument, it is unique take. A friend of mine -- no reactionary isolationist -- has made the point that the US will "know things are not going well when people start going to China or India to make their fortunes.<br /><br />Indeed, my company has offices in Asia, and I have seen very impressive resumes from people who studied in the US, lived there, and have now gone back.<br /><br />But I think the overall point about the impact of greater international exposure is more or less on target.<br /><br />When you live abroad you really do see the world differently, and can only help from a competitive stand point.KThttp://steelcurtainrising.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
