A country that doesn't innovate, produce, manufacture and support small businesses lands in trouble, it's not only the question of how to employ the average worker.
It's the question of how to make living standards generally affordable, and keep people spending money, which is the blood of a healthy economy and creates further opportunities.
Just check how many countries these days suffer from structural unemployment - it's not that those people would not be qualified or wouldn't want to work, but their jobs are simply 2000 miles away now for one third of the salary, which sets a trend with all the other huge companies, to stay competitive.
You can find all those monkey megadomes over here - DHL, IBM, InBev, Accenture, Delloite & Touche...
Tens of thousands of young people who should be hungry to make it are taking calls from all over the world and pile tons of invoices for $1000 a month which is not enough to even rent a decent flat and live like a human (since the prices here are artificially driven up by taxation, bureocratic fees and megacorporational lobby anyway).
They're lobotomized during the college, since those companies are the biggest sponsors of "public" universities and even usually receive gifts like tax holidays from the "national" government. I've been there, seen that.
So the result is a mass of productive workforce producing nothing, making no money to spend on anything, with local budget making nothing - someone check economy books for a definition of this groundbreaking economical approach - if I remember well.. I guess last time it was officially called ass fuck.
Why? Well someone needs to make more.
