Isn offshore outsourcing un-American?
Contrary to what most believe outsourcing actually benefits America. For each dollar spent offshore, $1.12 to $1.14 winds up in the American economy. See “Everyone’s a winner” below. As the Arizona Republic pointed out in February, 2004, outsourcing of services is just another form of trade, and trade benefits all countries involved. The outsourcing of services increases the competitiveness of American companies, the productivity of American workers and the number of high-paying jobs in the United States. Studies show the outsourcing of manufactured goods had this effect, and there is every reason to expect that the outsourcing of services will as well.
