Are the American people obsolete?
- Image via Wikipedia
I ran across this thought-provoking article by Michael Lind today. Michael Lind is policy director of the Economic Growth Program at the New America Foundation.
The article basically says that due to: outsourcing, cheap immigrant labor, and emerging markets, the rich have a decreasing dependence on the middle and lower class. While I don’t agree with everything in the article, it sure makes you think. Our government should be looking at these trends and addressing accoudingly. Unfortunately, it is difficult to get elected to national office unless you are rich and/or sold out to rich people!
