It would be nice if you actually gave reasons rather than making a conclusory allegation.

As it is, I see outsourcing as exporting middle class skilled labor jobs and leaving room only for food service jobs and professional jobs such as doctors, lawyers and engineers left. Aren't we just basically keeping the poor- poor and the rich - rich?

I'm looking for actual economic consequences for this and does the outsourcing really even out in the long run and not have any real effect?

Do imposing tariffs piss off other countries so that they either block our goods or impose tariffs upon us as well and just reduce the profit of a company which causes lay-offs here anyway?

Will we ever really whole-heartedly support "buy-American" when we as consumers demand the lowest possible prices on our goods?
