At no point have I ever said our excessive consumerism is good, only that people shouldn’t be competing internationally for an in-person job.
Having been raised in NYC, I can tell you directly that the job market is a bit fierce, and I think offshoring basic service jobs is terrible for everyone involved, owner included.
I agree with your post but wanted to add that I think we are starting to realize the effects of cutting out relationships with people in our community.
I suppose thats just another aspect of offshoring that is problematic.

Who’s buying anything fun when nobody has a job? So yeah, I agree with what you’re saying too.
