With good jobs going away, middle class downsizes

I think most folks are sympathetic with blue collars jobs going overseas. Not sure if most realize how many white collar jobs are leaving also. Globalization appears to be a popular movement, but for many Americans it will change their lives in a dramatic and negative way.
The mantra related to job losses is that the folks should retrain, adapt and overcome, but when large corporations ship these jobs overseas, it affects most Americans; not just those who are "down sized."
