I think....

... that the phenomenon of Outsourcing, although inevitable, does the world overall harm and slows down universal growth. Although my thesis is not fully enunciated here, the idea is that the outsourcees usually are already reaching beyond their technological abilities to implement the outsourcers' advanced demands. At the same time, enhancements to those technologies are not made any more by the outsourcers - after all, they can be supported by the less-than-SotA outsourcee. As a result, there is less natural evolution and improvements.
