off-shoring your economy to a political rival

If you offshore your economy, what prevents the recipient from becoming a rival?

We've offshored to all the BRICS countries and they've all become our rivals was a result

Well a funny thing about off-shoring your economy is that it really just means exploiting people in countries that can't stand up to your imperial might. So it inevitably creates enemies. Now you have no economy at home AND the rest of the world hates you! Double stupidity!
