Outsourcing has been particularly detrimental to employment in which american industries? a. manufacturing and customer service b. health care and dental care c. agriculture and food processing d. research and development

Correct A. Manufacturing and Customer Service

Outsourcing is a practice in which a business or company (A) contracts another one (B) in such a way that the people who are lending their services to company A do so indirectly through company B. Jobs, such as manufacturing and customer service are more commonly outsourced since they tend to be low-skilled labor which can be done for much cheaper in other countries where the minimum wage is lower, allowing for greater profits for the company.

Let's look at the other options:

B. Health care and dental care

This option is incorrect because these are high-skill jobs which are not commonly outsourced, especially because the people working on these professions usually need to actually meet their patients in person, so they can't be outsourced overseas.

C. Agriculture and Food Processing

The US is one of the biggest food producers in the world, exporting many of their good to other countries, so outsourcing isn't a big issue here.

D. Research and Development

The US is also one of the biggest countries when it comes to R&D. Owing to the fact that this is a skilled and very specialized labor, and that it can generate great dividends, this isn't usually outsourced, being instead relegated to American universities and other institutions.
