Could we say the same about Africans in the slave trade? I’m not sure because I don’t know history but I would hazard a guess that one could.

I'm not talking about slave trade

Countries that have a significant outsourcing footprint, do you think they do it because they're foolish/greedy? if it is so bad for them? There is a pressure especially in overpopulated nations to create jobs and the local economy is not mature enough to create enough jobs nor value to pay well.

Or they do it because local officials are bribed or powerless

If you ever lived in Russia, you'd realise that its entirely resolved by bribes, not national interest
