Jobs And Economy
Is Outsourcing jobs Hurting The United States?
Most companies outsource to save money, such as lower wages. Many companies found that outsourcing jobs enabled them to pay lower wages to regular people rather than to pay high salaries to highly skilled workers. By outsourcing, the companies saved money by paying less to make their product, and still make the same profit. Many companies therefore are creating jobs overseas. This however affects the US economy greatly, as unemployment rates go up.

He first states that if you're a business that wants to outsource jobs, you shouldn't get a tax deduction for doing it. That money should be used to cover moving expenses for companies like Master Lock that decide to bring jobs home. Second, no American company should be able to avoid paying its fair share of taxes by moving jobs and profits overseas. From now on, every multinational company should have to pay a basic minimum tax. and every penny should go towards lowering taxes for companies that choose to stay here and hire here in America. Last he stated my message is simple. It is time to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs oversea, and start rewarding companies that create jobs right here in America. Send me these tax forms, and i will sign them right away.

"I'm not happy exporting jobs but we must move ahead in technology and patents. I don't like losing any jobs but we'll see new opportunities created selling products there. We'll have a net increase in economic activity, just as we did with free trade. It's tempting to want to protect our markets and stay closed. But at some point it all comes crashing down and you're hopelessly left behind."

Outsourcing causes people to lose their jobs. This also causes many people to drop out of college to be able to pay bills. Sometimes even people with degrees find it hard to find a job because the job they studied and trained for is now overseas. This is why I am against outsourcing. Outsourcing only benefits the wealthy companies. It doesn’t benefit the young American who is trying to better himself. Outsourcing is only making other economies stronger while weakening ours.
