The Europeanisation of the US? [modified]
-
(Moved from the lounge to the soapbox) Why jobs are hard to find in the US?: http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/opinon/2009/07/137_49077.html[^] This article puts an emphasis on outsourcing and those "nasty immigrants" competing with "real" americans... Another one: http://www.onenewsnow.com/Culture/Default.aspx?id=618120[^] ... speaks about how salaries can raise even when jobs disapear. Which sounds all too familiar for someone living in Europe. So here is another link to a book (in French sorry): http://www.amazon.fr/LUsine-ch%C3%B4meurs-B%C3%A9atrice-Majnoni-dIntignano/dp/2266087851/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1248707068&sr=8-4[^] This book describes how Europe has become a "massive unemployment factory". What worse could happen? (Modified) http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/27/AR2009072701905.html[^] (/Modified)
