Administration Outsourcing Remarks
Gregory Mankiw, the Chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisors (CEA), testified to Congress two days ago that outsourcing of professional services could have advantages for the U.S. economy. (The CEA is a committee of academics meant to provide the president with disinterested economic advice.) Kerry immediately made this an issue. Tyler Cowen has a useful selection of blog links on the debate.
Mankiw's remarks were made as a part of the presentation to Congress of the annual Economic Report of the President. Alex Tabarrok provides a review of the report.
