"The whole point of this article is to argue for more H1-B visas, and more offshoring, not for hiring more American workers."

100 percent correct, wonder how some others failed to notice that. And FYI,

Deloitte Consulting Offshore Technology Group (DC-OTG) announced plans to double its staff strength in India this year from the current 1,000 employees, and also repeat the process next year. This announcement was made at the recently organised IMPACT Day celebrations—DC’s global corporate citizenship initiative. A joint venture of Deloitte Consulting (DC), one of the world’s largest privately-held management consulting firm, and the software major Mastek, DC-OTG targets Fortune 500 companies worldwide across seven key verticals.

Talking about future plans, DC-OTG’s CEO Raj Joshi said, “At Deloitte Consulting, we see the India-based offshore model as an immense opportunity that delivers great value to our clients and based on this demand we target to double our staff numbers from the current 1,000 staff this year and also in the following year.”

This is actually a good thing!

I'm amazed American companies can compete at all, Just like our government it seems all companies are loaded with useless, productivity draining positions like Team*/group leaders, Efficiency experts, Sensitivity trainers, Quality Assurance, Bloated HR Dept's and of course Consultants.

If we export this nonsense to other countries, maybe we can drag them down to our level. Or when the baby boomers retire and we get rid of these worthless positions then any so called labor shortage problem will be solved (Though unfortunately these people seem to be entrenched, You never see them get laid off).

* - I fully support who ever the person that came up with the concepts of "Teams" be publicly hung.
