With the lavish resources they can throw at any project, it seems hardly appropriate for us to try to develop like them.

You also tend to overstate countries' ability to control cost of living expenses. I don't think that I can agree with the conclusion that outsourcing has occurred primarily because of the laws in the US... I mean, really? Take a look at the
