Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 5 page paper discussing potential origins of the mass exodus of programming and other computer-related jobs from the US to overseas locations. The student-provided premise that it is all a result of two decades of trade with newly-industrialized nations is a short-sighted one, but it does have some merit. The paper proposes that perhaps programming was white-collar as a disguise only, that perhaps it should have been considered as the blue-collar job it more closely matches. The paper considers a quote from a 2004 news magazine as its core. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

labor-intensive industries, where wage gaps with workers in poorer countries are staggering (p. 43). American Market Demands One of the stock attention-getting tools
of sales trainers has been and remains their statement of there being three kinds of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who
say, "What happened?" It is the reaction of the third group to Samuelsons (2004) earlier articles that led him to answer questions and title this one, "Ive said you
should discount rhetoric that they can easily affect the number or quality of new jobs. Many readers were appalled by the message." A
recent (October 2004) trip to the Netherlands left the Tennessee-based traveler not in culture shock, but in an economic one. The identical printed tee shirt sold at a Tennessee
clothing store for $10 was on display in the window of a Rotterdam store called "American Classics." These shirts were identical, not only similar. They were made of
