1. The Chinese and American governments are different. The Chinese government believes in a communist economy (which will be changing into capitalist) while all of us here in America have always been a capitalist economy.
2. My mom has felt the effect of outsourcing. Due to her job at Ernst and Young, her business trip expense reimburse is outsourced to a team in India. Because of this, her reimbursement is never timely or done properly.
3. When I buy something at a big-box retailer, I don't read the label to find the country of origin therefor it does not influence my purchasing decision.
4. I agree that it is a win-win situation because both countries get something out of this arrangement. It creates more jobs in China but Americans are losing jobs because of it. It's cheaper for the owner of the company to outsource at least one of the plants to China since the Chinese work for less and always do a dependable job. This makes it easier to keep their other plants that are back in America open since the company is now saving more money. However, our economy in America is currently struggling, so I think that at least for awhile, our American jobs should stay in America. Therefor, I do not agree with outsourcing.
