Someone will do a study on the interjection into our economy of the overseas productivity we are getting from say, workers in India, without the people being in our welfare/health/SS system. That is going to give us the bottom line from them without the people being here. Kind of an artificial population increase.

We will benefit in a number of ways. The emergence of a productive middle class and a tech services industry in countries like India, China, Malaysia, the Philippines etc. will open up new markets for US goods – they have to buy their servers and their software somewhere – and will do a lot to build political stability.

Of course we’ll have to compete if we want to stay at the top of the heap, but that’s a given. I’d rather see economic competition than military competition.
