Campaign Blogging

Senator Edwards comments on the loss of high-tech jobs at Lawrence Lessig's blog. His suggestions: increased emphasis on science education; extending broadband access; increased investment in research and development; fair trade deals; and revamping the tax code to encourage corporations to keep jobs here.

I guess that's about all the government can do. But with the huge wage differential between domestic and foreign labor, I'm not sure if that will be enough. America needs to remain on the forefront of technological innovation to maintain a robust high-tech sector. And I wish the candidates would talk a little more about that.
