More about competitiveness

I guess Krugman's column today spoke to the issue of our competitiveness, particularly relative to the outsourcing of manufacturing jobs . I 'guess' because I refuse to subscribe to Times Select.

Mark Thoma, an economist at the University of Oregon, has some interesting comments about the issue on his Economist's View blog. I say interesting because they agree with my comment earlier today about the need to recognize reality and start acting to ensure we maintain our competitiveness.

The comments about his view are also very good and challenging.
