Outsourcing Evolving

Shree writes "An article at NYTimes suggests that the outsourcing mantra is shifting to reasons of hiring global talent, tapping new potential minds and amassing top global human resources. Its not just software companies trying to save a buck by outsourcing; now its about Berkely trying to hookup with Tsinghua University and institutes in India, and companies like IBM and Microsoft looking to setup R&D labs in Asia."

Forcing governments? Forcing employers? What a terrible idea if you actually want good health care. In Canada, where I live, health care is terrible because of exactly this reason: overtaxation of people wouldn't let them to provide themselves with sufficient coverage on one hand. On the other hand private health insurance is against the law (only in Canada, Cuba and North Korea, what a nice company to be in.) And the worst part is that all that money provided in taxes is not really creating the health care that is accessible, people have to wait for months, almost a year to get MRI, years to get various surgeries. Canadian healthcare is great, when you are healthy.
