Interesting trio describing globalization's irresistible forces.
India, in a flat world, redefines the question of reasonably accessed labor pool.
So what must be the U.S. response?
It must make parts of America, wonderfully fungible in the form of these things we call states, into competitive images of the competition, and thus the sourcecode of globalization itself is increasingly recast in the form of the once-student, now master--the global rule set that none control but some can at times lead in terms of new definitions.
We clearly did that on GPS for a long time, but we naturally attract competition in that process (GLONASS revived!), and so the great game simply enters another phase.
