Outsourcing
I find it hard to have complete sympathy with people who lose their jobs due to outsourcing. Okay, I feel sorry for them, but if we want to have cheap clothes and consumer electronics, someone has got to make these products for a pittance. We can't have it both ways.
However, by the same token, companies cannot morally outsource their production while at the same time prevent the public from buying things from different parts of the world where it might be cheaper. I'm talking DVD region encoding. Where's the justice in that?
