Yep, but STEED thinks it's happening already to all of Europe. I disagree.

@ elite - Middle class jobs don't go overseas. Low-income low-skill jobs are what get outsourced. Why? Because labour is cheaper abroad. It is a fact of globalisation that Western workers can't undercut foreign workers, and thats not necessarily a bad thing. Western workers have a skill advantage, they are more highly-trained, and if they're not they should be.
The West can't compete in low-skill manufacturing anymore, most Western economies have moved past it.

Yes, I think its not happening already in europe, i do think that european countries are trying some more socialist type ways of doing things and that might hurt them in the long run
