Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1, Explain how globalization contributes to the outsourcing of jobs.
2, Discuss how labor unions are affected because globalization allows high-wage jobs held by members of American labor unions to be moved to countries with low wages, benefits, and employee protections.
3, Explain how this pressures union members into accepting reductions in their compensation packages in an attempt to keep union jobs in the United States.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
