Outsourcing is generally when American companies go abroad to hire cheap foreign workers instead of staying home and hiring Americans. Usually the company is happy to sell their product to Americans, but rather hire foreigners.

You know when you are flying, the stewardess tell people, "If the air pressure in the cabin drops. . . . First put on your own oxygen mask, then help others."    Americans have always been willing to help people in foreign countries. But similar to the situation flying, first you have to take care of yourself and be strong in order to help others.

It is now time when corporations need to account for jobs gone abroad. While I am in favor of increasing the standard of living of citizens of India and China and elsewhere, America must come first.

Those corporations that outsource jobs should lose corporate tax breaks. If that doesn't bring more jobs home, then tariffs might help.  Forget "Free Trade!"  The US does Free Trade and our "trading partner" don't.  Balance of trade only!   I would also like to see large stickers that read "Made in USA" on everything that qualifies.  There is still something that qualifies, isn't there?

While Americans are hurting for work, one business I know that helps businesses go abroad is busier than ever. This insanity must stop.
