Give account of the political argument against outsourcing practiced by US firms.

The political argument against outsourcing practiced by U.S. firms can be summarized in three arguments:

Explanation:

The trade balance argument: this factor is both economic and political, and those who agree with it argue that outsourcing contributes to the decline of American exports while raising the amount of imports at the same time, since those goods and services produced abroad by outsourcing have to be imported to the U.S. if they are to be consumed by American consumeres.

The American worker argument: outsourcing creates a job loss in the U.S. that affects American workers, specially those without a tertiary education. Those who agree with this argument state that outsourcing increases economic inequality, urban decay, rates of mental disease and drug use, and so on.

The national security argument: this argument applies to specific industries like the weapon industry or pharmaceutical. Supporters of this argument say that there are several industries and economic sectors that should not be outsourced on the basis of national security.
