There is clearly a lack of information within this piece about what is actively counterprogramming all these conclusions. Like all information output, its produced, for some hoped for effect. Across all of SI, there is very low bandwidth about how time shapes capital.... the concepts of outsourcing services like xrays to India, is a function of price being too high comparatively. This is true across many / most areas where the labor component has inflated its value versus labor components available elsewhere. so we always get larges doses of these sorts of stories, reporting about the past as end all inputs. The varying Time Shapes of Capital work in a different way. When labor is the source of inflation, self preservation dictates pursuit of cheaper alternatives....the only news here is that cheaper alternatives to domestic labor and content, are co related to the times we live. Reporting about Domestic consumption is a function of hindsight. In a society with degrees of freedom operate, entrepreneurs will recognize "current time", as opportunity, and will counter program trends in 3 ways. 1. Address the problems of labor cost. 2. define added value as a complex arrangement of resource utilization. 3. supplant normative practice by gaining competitive advantage over the conditions of inertia locking up the present. Valuing The Dark Matter which pervades the process of the varying Time Shapes of Capital, is not something easily done by journalists, producers and pundits. In fact, inputs from these sources while popular always fall short in understanding, as they see fragments as ends in an of themselves, they always extrapolate to the past, attributing shifts within present allocation placement as predictive of future trends, when in fact they are simply abreactionary, simple response mechanisms, within holistic net sum images. while all the "producers" go about the business of scripting malaise to suit misunderstanding....other, more interesting arrangements proceed unnoticed, unglorified, under the radar. a few examples.
