I know it sounds scary at first for you. But if you think, the jobs being outsourced are the ones that are operational. The creative jobs won't be outsourced.

It's like when you're sleeping, accounters in India are making all sums and math equations so when you wake up, you can get it done and analyse the results and take the decisions.

Like when big corporations began building plants in Asia (don't tell me you don't know your Nike shoes came from China/Korea/etc) to make savings, I bet people had the same concerns as yours, today. Steve, do you buy the more expensive shoe just because it's American made? I don't think so. Same thing will happen with offshoring.

Although it seems a bit unclear now, American Economy will reinvent itself as it always did. The world's engine will keep pushing the rest. And the market will get better, sooner or later.
