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".
Here's where all the naivete that hides behind your chubby little face shines through especially brightly.

You have no concept of how much training goes into a "labor job" because you've never held a real job. You should pick up some vocational courses (of which I doubt your privately-endowed, middle-class suburban public school offers very many). I'm surprised your bankrupt parents didn't send your ass out to deliver papers every day so you could have your three bowls of Corn Puffs for breakfast.

Suppose you are trained as a worker on a particular kind of industrial press. That's all you operate, you're really good at it, and you've been doing it for 15 years. Then you find out that your job has been moved to Mexico because someone there will do it for 10x less than you and not ask for lunch breaks. No other company for five states in all directions uses the same press, and no one is looking for workers, either. What now? You have to retrain and start at the bottom of the ladder all over again, throwing away all those years of brain capital you've accumulated.

Not to mention the ENTIRE tech industry. You need a university degree to work successfully in that field.

the thing is, I imagine that as a major improvement over back-breaking manual labor.
LOL!

If that wasn't such a stupid, pompous thing to say, it would go in my signature.

This just goes to show exactly how little experience you have in these matters, yet here you are running your fat little fingers off about them.

Would you rather work on construction for $20/hour, 12 hours a day, 4 days a week OR $5.15/hour, 4 hours a day for 5 days a week. Now imagine you have two fat little kids such as yourself that love Corn Puffs as much as you do.

I think I can guess what a fatbody like you would pick.
