compartmentally ever seeking ways to accomplish urgent and myopic foreign policy objectives, to subsidize away what little remains of a ‘home market’.

Both major political parties have by now embraced free-trade consumerist globalization based on political patronage more than on military strategy or diplomatic calculation.

Until recently there was talk of a lame service economy. But we’ve been getting rid of services too. States’ bar news have seminar ads such as this: “Legal Process Outsourcing (lpo) in India—What You Need To Know About Who, How, Why, and Why Not”. Anything goes!

With 50 state bars and the federal system overlying them, it is surprisingly easy for focused and dedicated foreign regimes and firms to poach on this and other erstwhile domestic service industries.

With appraisal and other fields’ basic data going on-line, who will need high paid American appraisers, or other specialists, when Indian or other ones come on-line in 1, 5, or 10 years?

Some have called urban redevelopment a ‘zero-sum game’ which fosters false competition between municipalities for consumer businesses rather than creating new producers.

Relocation of production to cities does not happen, especially by globally-competing and uncoordinated local efforts.
