I.A. "The Romans" March 21, 2000 []

Outsourcing and Offshoring In Rome 1) The tasks of slaves that contributed to the wealth of the Roman economy were forming, businesses, and public buildings. 2) The manipulation, the degrading, and the dependency on slaves was disastrous in many ways. 3) The average wealthy person in Rome had about 400 slaves just for themselves. And some people had more. 4) Slave's masters made them do some of the most simple jobs such as getting dressed, holding a towel while going to the bath, and cooking. 5) **Slaves taking Roman jobs was a problem because the lower class could not compete with the freed laborers. So they were forced out of jobs.** 6) **The lower class was depending on the government to take care of them.** 7) **The wealthy were forced to pay high taxes and were expected to help out the community. So they started freeing their slaves.**

Today 1) The difference between outsourcing and off shoring is off shoring is off shoring is when jobs are moved out of the country and outsourcing is when jobs are moved out of the business. 2) Outsourcing can cause ethical issues and social responsibilities. 3) It causes cost reduction. 4) Pros- low labor, better quality, and improves innovation. 5) Cons- quality, turnaround time. 6) **Outsourcing is a problem to the U.S. economy because hiring foreign workers has an impact of stripping many Americans of jobs they would have/could have performed.** 7) Off shoring means having the outsourced business functions done in another country.

Questions for the expert: 1) How does outsourcing effect the economy today? 2) What are some ways that the government is trying to help the problem of offshore? 3) companies when outsourcing underestimate the costs and sometimes go over budget. When these companies go over budget what are the effects?

 * There are many ways to fix your problem of slaves taking Roman jobs. But the one that rises to top would be to make more jobs that slaves couldn't do. These jobs would involve reading and writing, which slaves typically can not do. These jobs could include, reading, wiring, tutoring, some cooking (reading ingredients), architects, and many more. Another solution could be to have the price of slaves increase. This would help the problem because people couldn't afford as many slaves as they used to so there would be more job openings for Roman citizens. You could also raise the taxes. This goes along with lowering the amount of money the higher class has so they cant buy enough slaves which means the Roman citizens would take them. this would also help the government by getting more money to spend. These are great ideas and i hope you put them in to consider.**
