The issue of outsorcing is based in economics. Companies are attempting to reduce their costs while producing a consistently good product or service. More interesting to me, is the situation surrounding IT companies hiring foreign citizens to work in the United States. The companies believe that there are more jobs than there are American workers. This very well may be. Many countries are educating their students in a more rigorous and focused manner than Universities in the United States. This is leading to a growing workforce of qualified and skilled labor.
I believe that hiring more foriegn work is a good thing. It is ensuring that the workforce is highly skilled. In turn, the US education system will have to compete. This will improve the quality of our education system.
I am not worried about my future job being outsourced. I hope to work as a studio artist. There is no real way I could hire people in foreign countries to create my paintings and call them my own.
