Outsourcing is only a "problem" if the Indians can do the same job for less money.

If someone is willing to do the SAME JOB for less money, that's the true value of that job - and those demanding more compensation better up their skills to be able to demand higher pay.

And your computer was probably made in China, as are most toys in this country. If you insist the computer be made in the USA, the price will quadruple, sales will drop, stores will close, etc. People have been complaining about the loss of U.S. manufacturing jobs for DECADES, yet somehow we still haven't attained Third World status.
