Outsourcing and jobs in the election year
Thomas Lowell argues that focusing on outsourcing alone ignores the net balance of jobs moving between nations. He cites official data showing millions outsourced by American multinationals and millions outsourced to Americans by foreign firms, and he critiques policies claiming to “save jobs” as often counterproductive. He notes government hiring lacks funding independence and cites tariffs’ mixed effects, concluding there is no free lunch in job creation.
