Multiplier Effect ripples throughout our country Companies find ways to either outsource or insource jobs which takes away stability and job growth for current citizens. If every year, The number of chairs decreases but the number of players increases. . . You destabilize the foundations of a society. . Which is what you're seeing. Prices never go down, They always go up regardless of whether the job is insourced or outsourced. Please don't believe that. Its not true. Report Post

It should be illegal To start, Why should you be forced to give your information to a person who isnt even in the USA and can't be imprisoned if he/she steals your information? Do you really think india or china will actually persecute one of their own people just because Americans identities were stolen? Good luck with that one. Not to mention the fact that Americans lose their jobs just so corporate America can enslave people while the CEOs make 300 times more than the average worker. Really? This should be made illegal and other countries should be creating their own jobs for themselves. Just because china and india have a huge population problem doesnt mean American workers should have to suffer just so their economy can keep going. A company can certainly still make profit while keeping the jobs here in America if CEOs would stop being so greedy. 300 times more than the average worker is certainly enough to keep Americans working. So what if your 300 times is cut down to only 100 times more than the average worker? Atleast you'll be keeping the Americans working especially when Americans are probably the ones that made you rich to begin with. Report Post

Yes, it just is. Accept it. Outsourcing- to obtain goods or services from an outside source. With that being said, and research being done, I cannot make a stand. But if I had to make a choice I’d say yes, outsourcing jobs to other countries might not be necessarily good for America. But there are major advantages and major disadvantages in outsourcing. Let me explain why:



The United States believes in out sourcing, but some do not. Actually, many do not. The argument is, “Is outsourcing beneficial for the U.S. economy or is it not?” Some say yes and some say not. The United States outsource to simply cut back on costs because if the U.S. didn’t outsource the costs of goods and supplies would be higher- and they don’t want to pay it. Their way of thinking is, “Why pay more money for something when there is an alternative solution? This is business, no emotions involved.” Well think about this. Many people have lost their jobs to outsourcing because overseas they will take much less pay- and that the reason they outsource. It’s all about why pay more when, etc…



This is not my only argument either, there are many other issues about it. Report Post

Americans need jobs The rate of homelessness is going up, and by outsourcing, companies are taking jobs away from people who otherwise may end up on the streets. This is bad for America because if the people don't have any jobs, they wont have any money to spend on the products that people are manufacturing in other places. Report Post

Billions in remittances to foreign countries NEVER benefit our economy through the basic multiplier effect of money. As an IT professional with a Computer Science degree, I have seen hundreds of fellow IT employees lose their jobs to outsourcing. Onshore and offshore workers are paid less and are actually less knowledgeable than those they replace in most instances. Monies paid to the H1B visa holders is sent offshore and thus our economy never benefits from the multiplier effect of that money being spent here in America. Corporations claim they can't find talent but I see otherwise as knowledgeable and experienced people are let go and replaced by less knowledgeable and cheaper foreign workers. This practice puts downward pressure on IT wages and discourages younger Americans from seeking IT jobs. An education in the STEM disciplines is losing attraction for younger workers as they can't secure jobs due to outsourcing. Report Post

America should not outsource any jobs to other countries including India. America was set up by forefathers to live by biblical principles. That includes in every aspect of life. Now in Deuteronomy chapter 24 and Leviticus chapter 19 the principles to follow during harvest is clearly mentioned. In other words the benefits of a local business should reach to the downtrodden in the local society. Thus each local business must incorporate people from the local community to help the welfare of the people in that community. For this reason, I never entertained any website orders from other countries. I want them to do it by the experts from that country. If any special expertise is required then the person can be employed from another country for a period of time and send back after the project. Posted by: jteapen Report Post

3 words: We need jobs. Some argue that outsourcing is a great cost-effective option for corporations, but at whose cost? Americans?!Not only does it create problems for Americans but also for these people working in foreign countries. Many are paid way below minimum wage and don’t deserve it. Children are working in unpleasant conditions in places like India, China, and Thailand. If we don’t support child labor here in the U.S why are we supporting it in these countries?

Outsourcing is affecting the American youths Many Americans are pissed off with the outsourcing process that’s going on for the last couple of decades. The companies that are outsourcing the jobs of American youths are in a way playing with millions of lives. It not just includes that youths who were losing out their bread and butter but the family associated with them. A saying goes: an idle mind is a devil’s workshop. The unemployed youths of America are resorting to drugs and many other anti-social activities in absence of job. Many a lives are wasted that could have been saved from obscurity and disorientation had they been provided with a suitable job.

I’ve been looking for a way to mitigate these problems to see if I can manage the potential ‘cons’ mentioned in your article; the primary challenge I’m facing is trying to navigate the many hundreds of global call center options efficiently. I’ve come across outsource-consultants.Com as a possible brokerage option to connect me with an inbound call center that would fit the needs of my business – are you familiar with them? The American call centers would be far more efficient and effective in handling the jobs. The ease of doing business with a company here is worth of the higher cost than the shitty and cheap call centers in India or China. Posted by: ErikMoser Report Post

Outsourcing drives down wages and makes it hard for Americans to secure high-paying jobs I'm a developer and have noticed job listings on indeed, Dice and other job boards that advertise positions that require at least 5yrs experience but that pays no more than $20/hr. No system administrator or developer with that experience level would take that. That employer is attempting to justify hiring cheap foreign labor. His concern is for himself, how much more of his profits he can keep for himself. It also cheapens our profession and makes being a software developer akin to flipping burgers, which is a classic minimum wage job. We go to college to learn our field at great cost only to find the work is either not there ,or,that it is worth less when we do at last find employment. I think our government has betrayed us for allowing this travesty to continue and also by alleging that it will some how boost our economy. How does that work? Who can afford the homes being built, the cars being produced, or enjoy the luxurious resorts if the high paying jobs are not there for citizens. The foreign laborer are off-shore and not spending their earnings here. Report Post
