It's called competition.
In a free market, the job goes to the lowest bidder.
Unless you're a union thug.
Or a government thug.
Or an American engineer, generally not a member of a union.
The basic problem you are overlooking is that the outsourcing bypasses labor laws that are tightly coupled to the standard of living that is commonplace in the US. It is simply impossible to be price competitive when the employment rate in India is below what someone makes at the minimum wage here in the US. Do you honestly expect college-trained engineers with thirty years of experience to work below the minimum wage? Perhaps you expect us to reach the ripe age of 54, then retrain in what? Making picture frames?
Under these circumstances, people in this country are out of their minds if they attend engineering school now. This will place the US in the position of obtaining all high tech artifacts from third world suppliers, including the weapon systems that are supposed to make this Nation independent. Do you honestly think India and China are going to supply this Nation with first-line systems, or will they keep those for their own military? It won't take long before this Nation is a third world consumer.
BTW, establishing global independence of this nature is exactly how global governance can and will come to fruition.
Finally, I expect there is nothing about your job that makes you immune to outsourcing, unless you are a plumber or something. We all can't be plumbers. Others on this thread have pointed out that if you don't get upset when your fellow citizens' jobs are outsourced, there is nothing to stop yours from becoming history either. It boils down to what the Jews said following WWII: They came for the gypsies, but I wasn't a gypsy, so I didn't care. They came for the infirm, but I didn't care because I wasn't infirm. They came for the outspoken, but I didn't care because I was not outspoken. They came for the intellectuals, but I didn't care because I wasn't an intellectual. When they came for me, there was nobody left to care.
Union guys are losing their jobs too. Lot of good them unions do...
