Outsourcing to a cheaper supplier (in the same country and outside it) is not new. Today, not only material are supplied, as many international companies outsource even their services to cut costs. Such companies are located all over the world and most of such services (as well as goods) are from the Third World or developing nations where the material, production and labour costs are still very low compared to First World or developed countries. I know of companies in many European countries as well as developed or developing Asian countries doing this. For technical expertise, India, Philippines and Malaysia are major suppliers due to their English background (English being the commercial language internationally).

I don't know about other countries, but isn't it a shame that companies like GM, GE, Goodyear, almost all communication and technology oriented companies have done this? And then the employers here in the US are hiring illegals and immigrants to do the work at lesser wages. And if you notice, prices aren't coming down on these products, so where do all the extra profits go? Hmmm.......

Yes. Canada. Our corporations are just as greedy as yours.
Although it may seem like we are taking jobs from the US, a lot more have been going to India and China. Even our established company's have headed south (I mean Mexico by the way).
This is something that will hurt us in the long run just as much as you. Our government also has done zero to help. We are all in the same boat on this one.

lol! funny you should ask this question. I just called my local phone company because of trouble with my phone line and internet service and I was transferred to india and then england. I've been complaining about that same thing off and on for about the past 2 or 3 years now. it's really disgusting isn't it. I feel your frustration. I'm feeling it too and I guess I just simply don't get it.

the difficulty lies interior the flaws you memtioned.. particular they're going to artwork for much less.. a lot of them stay in one abode.. some as many as 3 families that totals 12 human beings or greater.. they pool and keep their money.. lots of what they earn is going back to Mexico.. an occasion of how the pastime difficulty is affected is this.. abode builders want worker's.. and carpenters.. and roofers.. they build residences for as little in line with sq. foot as accessible.. the place they might could pay experienced carpenters and plumbers and electricians they might replace them with much less costly hispanic workers.. whilst it used to cost sixty 5 or 70 earnings line with sq. foot to construct a house.. they might now get it carried out for 40 to 50 earnings line with sq. foot by hiring extraterrestrial beings.. the builder makes greater money and the staff are presented by sub contractors.. The builder expenditures 70 earnings line with sq. foot and somebody pays the cost.. till now that.. the final contractors employed the sub contractors who in turn employed experienced criminal voters.. the inflow of inexpensive hard artwork cost many experienced workers jobs.. it extremely is misguided.. yet so a ways the only state that has had the heart to do something approximately it extremely is OKLAHOMA.. the respond on your question is for particular.
