Jobs aren't what make people wealthy, its access to markets. Jobs are an expense, not an end in itself. Politicians and now even economists always talk about jobs as some thing to strive for. This article talks about outsourcing but freeing up human resources to pursue more meaningful work should be applauded. Eliminating menial work for people to perform (usually replaced by machines or in this case outsourcing to low cost countries) has led to furthering human achievement. That is of course only true if you believe people aren't mindless sheep.
