It arguably *is* a good idea. If you can hire 3 engineers in India for the price of one in the USA, then yes, it harms that one in the USA, but it helps *three* in India. I'm operating from the assumption that an Indian is just as valuable as an American, so there's a net gain of two people finding good jobs. If your premise is that Americans are more important than everyone else in the world, then you might reach a different conclusion."

it is also a good idea to hire Indian or Chinese CEO's and managers. You can hire hire 3 of them for the price of one in the USA. Why outsource only non-CEO's and managers?

Tada!! There's no point in just destroying a place completely. You need to occupy to derive any benefit (wealth, oil, slaves etc) from it. You cannot kill everyone, so it is possible for you to subjugate them to work for you. Thus, if you cannot kill everyone, they can possibly kill you. That's why the govt having superior firepower is pointless against its own armed citizenry. Also works for a conquering country against an armed populace. Do you think the aristocratic class would just want an empty country filled only with their soldiers?
