When you outsource you effectively take that money out of the system and put it in another country that usually does not have people to return it.

Think of it as having a pool and a pump and fountain. You take water out of the pool and push it through the fountain and it looks pretty and goes back into the pool and recycles. Well if you take that hose supplying the fountain and divert some of the water to another pool you have less water in your pool..... your pool gets lower and lower as you do it. Remember Nixon removed us from the gold standard...... outsourcing is very destructive to the economy since it is the rich with more that are doing it.
you seem to understand very little about micro and macro economics. proof of this is the fact that you think the economy is a zero sum system. its not. economies grow 2-10% per year in the real world. in your world, they apparently don't.

massive profits, continued corporate and economic growth are hardly harmful to the economy.
