Chimp, you need to understand that most jobs which are outsourced don't really have an education base. They are labor jobs. There doesn't need to be any new "re-education".
The necessary education base for jobs will only rise very slowly, almost certainly within perameters which will not cause a massive displacement of workers. What's going to happen in the short term is that manufacturing jobs will be replaced with service jobs. So I will give you some credit, many people may very well work at a Wal-Mart; the thing is, I imagine that as a major improvement over back-breaking manual labor.

With the exception of Wal-Mart being investigated for not properly paying their workers and with holding benefits and the back-breaking labor being unionized and paying well. Some people would prefer those jobs to working at wal-mart. Not everyone is going to go to college and not many can live off minimum wage, especially with a family.
