(adapted from "First they came ...")
  • When textile work was automated and outsourced, John Q. Public did not object, because he was not a textile worker.
  • When farm work was automated and outsourced, John Q. Public did not object, because he was not a farm worker.
  • When shoemaking was automated and outsourced, John Q. Public did not object, because he was not a shoemaker.
  • Furthermore, John Q. Public indulged himself with low prices for textile products and farm produce and shoes, although doing so did not benefit local textile workers or local farm workers or local shoemakers.
  • When the work of John Q. Public was automated and outsourced, no one objected.
  • Individually and collectively, can years of economic self-sacrifice atone for years of economic self-indulgence?
