Outsourcing

My research paper does not have a definite thesis yet.  The topic is outsourcing however and I am thinking about not addressing whether it is good or bad.  But playing both sides of the spectrum.  I will talk about the good things and the bad things about it.  That's the plan.

Viewpoints

It is horrible.  Many people think that outsourcing is just a way for companies to get cheap labor so that they can make more money for themselves.  They feel that it takes away US jobs and puts people out of work.  (source: Cooper)

Outsourcing is good.  Some people argue that it is actually better for the economy even though some say that it takes away jobs.  (source: Feenstra)

Some people have a combination of two different beliefs.  They think that in some ways outsourcing can be very efficient but they also at the same time feel that it is unfair to the US workers who literally have to train their replacements.  (source: Drezner)

Many people feel that outsourcing is good because it causes the prices of things sold in the US to go down and this helps the overall economy. (source: Morrison)
