What type of engineering is most susceptible to outsourcing?

<p>

I think that there’s a sort of victim culture now in America in which the employee is entitled to a job and the employer is somehow in the wrong if they take that job away.

<p>I think that it is bigger than that, at least where outsourcing is concerned. You see, since WWII and our “fued” with Russia, Americans have always been suspicious of other countries trying to steal our stuff and take over the world. First Russia, and then in the 70’s and 80’s Japan was supposed to become the world leader. Now China and India are supposed to take all of our work away…see a pattern?</p>

I try to get out of one dying field only to enter another? According to what I’ve read here even if I get a job, I’ll likely be laid off or fired by the time I’m 40? awesome. . . /sarcasm

<p>Don’t believe everything you read on here. Besides, I doubt there are many professions more secure than engineering, health care being an obvious exception.</p>
