Because it is much cheaper for them!
if they are disallowed to get cheaper work help from outside, they will surely get bankrupt.

Also, American market are not the actual consumers for them. And if they stops outsourcing completely, other markets may stop letting them get in.

You know what? Americans think that outsourcing is wrong for them, but the reality is, Outsourcing is HELPING them.

Better would be if American citizens stop buying chinese cheap alternatives for American own made expensive goods. That will help America to provide a stimulus to American producers.
But why will you buy a thing for double the price if the similar thing is available at much cheap price?

Anyways, if America goes protectionist, Obama will loose all confidence in outside world. And that will be greater loss for American producers.

if American Car Quality is the same a forien, how does one explain that Toyota is now the leading makers of cars and GM has fallen to number 2??
If i own an Americna made car and 85% of ythe parts are made over seas, i do notsee how this helps the guy next dor to me who has acar who is assemeleb in the US but who's part are 85% forien??
