“When a presidential election year coincides with an
uncertain economy, campaigning politicians invariably invoke an international
economic issue as a dire threat to the well-being of
Americans(Drezner,1).” However outsourcing
cannot be a problem for American workers and the American economy. The unemployment caused by outsourcing will
be lower than expected. Outsourcing also
reduces their barriers to trade and investment.
The law and additional political pressures are also made by it. The problem is people feel that their jobs
are threatened, but it is opposite.
The title, “The
Outsourcing Bogeyman”, means that
outsourcing is thought of making the American business powerless, but it
actually brings more benefits and “Bogeyman” shows the concerns was just
imagination and untrue. I think.
The other book: The Elephant and the Dragon says “Working
involving 'personal services' like plastic surgery or lawn mowing will stay in
the United States, while 'impersonal services,' like jobs for movie animators
and call-center operators, may move(Meredith, 83).” Even though they lose job opportunities,
those jobs are the work which not so many people need at.
The most
important point is that the current trend of outsourcing business overseas
gives competitiveness to the U.S. The
U.S companies can know the world economy tendency and get benefits
effectively. I mean lower costs made
higher benefits.
At first, offshoring
seems that the U.S. benefits go to other countries. However, they get more benefits from
outsourcing. It can be applied our
lives. When I was a leader of the recruitment
in the university, I tried to do everything by myself. I couldn’t do so well but I changed my mind
and ask my friends to cooperate with. After
I made teams to cooperate with friends, I could succeed the recruitment. As I outsourced my jobs, I could focus on the
activity which I have to do and all of the activity was complete.
