To us, no.

Actually, we do get somewhat lower prices, but considering the labor we give up in return, I'm not sure that the difference is made up.

We get only slightly lower prices, because the companies keep large profit margins. Anyway, we don't build wealth by driving toward the rock-bottom of wages and costs. We build wealth by increasing wages over the years and decades and keeping the money in our economy instead of letting it flood out to other countries as it's doing now.

Slowly but surely, we're impoverishing ourselves. Of course, the situation is extremely complicated, and not to be analyzed in a sentence, but the bottom line is that there's a large net negative in outsourcing.
