* Company X outsources, laying off 1,000 engineers who made an average of $75K/year.
* Because it costs Company X more money in taxes, their profits don't soar, as they assumed they would as a result of outsourcing.
The problem here is that is may take at least 6+ months of time between cause (the 1st point above) and effect (the last point) - by then the people making the outsourcing decisions have cashed in their options and moved on! Bad for the company, yes, but rarely bad for the actual people making the decisions.
