"The protectionist cures being advanced to address these hardships will make matters worse rather than better," he said.

Do you agree with this?


To be honest, I don't know enough about the subject. And in reality, Greenspan was talking about workers in call centers and not the level of tech work that you do.

Having said that, its been my impression that protectionist cures only work in the short term. However, I do find it hard to believe that Indian tech workers are that much more advanced than American tech workers. Amy has suggested that that might be true to some degree. Do you believe it to be true?

Are there many tech jobs in the unions? I certainly don't think there are many union jobs in call centers. Aren't unions concerned mostly with industries in which members are employed?
