327 $aTitle page; Book Presentation; Book Abstract; About the Author; Important Note About This Ebook; Summary of Exporting America (Lou Dobbs); Assault On Middle-Class Americans; The Myths Of Outsourcing And Free Trade; Myth No. 1: Outsourcing American jobs is good for our economy.; Myth No. 2: Outsourcing has improved productivity growth.; Myth No. 3: Outsourcing has created a demand for high-value jobs in America.; Myth No. 4: Outsourcing is simply a part of free trade and classical economists like Adam Smith and David Ricardo would have loved it.
327 $aMyth No. 5: Our economy and consumers are strong enough to run large chronic deficits and historically, a trade surplus is a sign of a weakening economy.Myth No. 6: The only alternative to free trade is protectionism or "economic isolationism."; Myth No. 7: Job retraining is the way to deal with outsourcing. Whenever industries and jobs leave our shores, we'll retrain the workers for better jobs.; Myth No. 8: Outsourcing benefits everyone. Look at what happens when Honda outsources to the United States and builds cars here. The United States is insourcing as many jobs as it's exporting.
327 $aMyth No. 9: The goal of outsourcing jobs overseas is to increase productivity, not simply to cut wage costs.Myth No. 10: When Corporate America outsources jobs overseas, it enlarges its knowledge base and creates not only more jobs here, but high-value jobs.; Myth No. 11: We want to see countries like India prosper and outsourcing helps their economies and their workers.; Myth No. 12: U.S. multinationals are outsourcing because Americans aren't well enough educated to fill the jobs.
327 $aMyth No. 13: U.S. companies have to compete in a global market. Even if everyone agreed that outsourcing is terrible, there's no way to stop it.Finding The Solutions; Buy the Book; About the Summary Publisher; Copyright
