To your point 1, some could argue:<p>Yes, outsourcing employs poor people elsewhere, but at 1&#x2F;100th the cost. So the overall transfer of wealth is reduced, and global wealth gap increased. Also, given the intricacies of economic development, it is debatable whether an influx of outsourced jobs and factories (which may feed workers, but hinder formation of local industries) is better for the poor of that country. Just pointing out that it&#x27;s not so easy to make a claim that outsourcing is categorically better for poor people anywhere, all things considered.
