Sorry, Dan. Didn't mean to overgeneralize.

Why?







I think cjbaldw covered the "why" pretty well..
One of the benifits of free global trade is the increased insourcing. for example, Toyota now has a commercial that says they alone create or contribute to some 200,000 U.S. jobs. I understand the ratio of insourcing to outsourcing is pretty high. Any data anyone?
