It is also worth noting that the types of work wherein in-home communications could be substituted for travelling to an office are not the types of "new economy" domination that we all thought it would be in the 90's. Look right now what the prime needs are for this global economy - energy production, manufacturing, product production. You might be able to monitor a server network from home, but you're not going to explore for oil from anywhere else except out in the field. You can only mine coal at the coal mine. You're not going to roll steel or melt aluminum from the comfort of your own home. <br /> <br />"Old economy" jobs are jobs wherein the boots need to be on the ground on location. And it is clear now that the old economy is much more pivitol to global economic growth than the over-hyped new economy.
