If the results of outsourcing were so bad you all guys wouldn't be so worked up about it. The truth is, the person you answered (currently downmodded to -1) made an excellent point. People who protest against outsourcing are no different from the workers long ago, when the companies first started using machines to perform tasks previously done by physical labor. The workers then went on strikes, were destroying the machines etc.
- johntabet 18y agoNot necessarily a great analogy. I think you are trying to liken cheap, possibly underpaid, labor to machines and factories. While I think that it is entirely possible that cheap Indian (or other) labor could replace more expensive American labor, I don't think low paid labor is exactly the next generation of technology. Something about likening cheap human labor to convenient innovations in technology just doesn't strike me as right.
