its actually the opposite. Outsourcing causes temporary harm but in the long run causes the people's money to be worth more, so they can buy more stuff for their money. but in india it would cause large inflations. and people wouldn't have as much stuff to buy. Thats why the us government allows companies to outsource. Think about it from an economic perspective.

so youre saying if non of us americans have jobs we are better off..... ok explain to me how we will make money then please. then other countrys wont be selling us anything. people can make economics say whatever they want, just like people make the bible say whatever they want. ridicules.

i will explain. say there are 10 goods in country A and 10 goods in country B. In each country there are also 10 units of money and each unit of money can buy 1 good. Now country A goes to country B and buys labor at 1 unit. Now there are 11 units in country B and only 9 units in country A. Not only that but there are more goods in country A. This is the Data:
country A: 9 money & 11 goods
Country B: 11 money & 9 goods

Country A will have more goods at less money. B will have inflation

oh yeah and americans can still make money because there are alot of jobs still out there. Once all jobs are outsource, americans will have no choice but to start their own business and outsource for themselves. deep irony there huh. Robots will replace labor and immigrants will replace profesional jobs. What can you do about it? YOu must grow and change with the advances.

robots cannot do everything, immigrants wont ever take over professional jobs either. because, that would mean they are professionals... which most of them are uneducated farmers or something. also, not everyone will outsource, esp ones that have pride in there country and a sense of duty to other americans. youll never change my views on this so dont waste your time.

i don't need to change your views and i don't care. sorry to say but the country won't ask for your opinion. what your saying is really offensive about immigrants being uneducated. If you didn't know immigrants have already taken professional jobs. Like programming to Indian workers. Programming needs a special type of math that is difficult to learn. if you hadn't noticed you were first to respond to my comment.
