OFFSHORE OUTSOURCING: negative effects on the future of America?

Question

what are some negative effects offshore outsourcing might have on America's future economy and political standing?

Answer 1

Outsourcing means less jobs for people in the US as big companies race to outsource jobs to cut down spending and skim some profit to please the shareholders or to stay competitive with others that's doing the same.

At the same time it is probably unavoidable since the nature of American business model is cutting costs to increase profit. The smart thing for the government would be to help people get retrained in other localized jobs that cannot be outsourced.

Answer 2

products produced within will have competition thus limiting production needs which will limit growth of companies within the country resulting to less employment oppurtunities however it will develop relationship with other countries having more allies in times of war...=(

Answer 3

Well as a Native Alaskan Native That lives In America I would find a lot of problems with Alaska shipping our resources to other places. China really needs the oil we make but really would you like us to ship it there? If it's American Made it should stay here if it has power potential. I'll never make my little votes against us. We need everything anything else that not vital to us might go.
