American Jobs

Good American jobs are defined as those that have an American salary and carry American benefits.  The other jobs are those in other countries that pay less and offer fewer benefits.  The problem for Americans is that the lack of competition for good American jobs in yesteryears made our citizens educationally lazy, while disciplined Asian populations surged ahead in the knowledge competition.  Now we find that a good American job, European job, Japanese job, or Chinese job, or any other good job in the world will be auctioned off to the highest qualified applicant at the lowest price simply because Internet-based remote machine operations, teleconferences, virtual reality, and all the wonders of the cyber universe make it possible because it can be.

In the near future, a good job will be any available job in the world.  Americans are already getting used to being paid less for their work, as others around the world are delighted to be getting paid more.  Not too long from now, salaries will level off for everyone, and the dream world of a large middle class will be shared by many nations.  The question of how large will the American middle class be in the future is answered with another question; how fast will America fix its educational mess?
