If you work in a technology field and are scared of outsourcing, try getting a job with the government or a defense contractor. Hell will probably freeze over before the US outsources those jobs.

Health care? Wages are going to go down. A lot.
Just think about for a minute.
Everyone bitches about how health care costs too much in this country. At the same time they want to expand it to include everyone. So we're going to increase the demand and decrease the price. Do you really think only the health insurance industry will be affected? Salaries are going to have to be slashed across the board in health care.

Health care may be the best one. Demand should continue to go up and the hands-on stuff cannot possibly be outsourced.

I work in telecom, on top of this being an unstable field in general, all my work can be done remotely, like say from India. Health Care seems to be fairly future proof.

I don't think you can-or should-plan a lifetime career anymore. Go for a ten year horizon and constantly reevaluate your possibilities.

<----- Out Sourced!
Look up outsourcing and A76. I suppose other jobs and branches will see this as a way to save money or hide money and this is probably the tip of the ice burg.
