the political class has been trying to hold back this tide for years, but in the current environment I think the backlash is going to prove too strong too resist. The Architects, Engineers and IT folks who didn’t seem to care when some autoworker’s job got outsourced to Mexico are now jumping into the Ross Perot Brigades with both feet. Smoot-Hawley here we come!

In India they get it. One of their top concerns is what to do not IF the US moves to curtail offshoring, but WHEN.

We are on a path of non competitiveness in tax policy, labor policy, environmental policy, litigation policy, and education policy. Offshoring is a symptom not the cause of problems. The cost of labor and investing have risen dramatically with rat control. If left with reasonable government influence, the US workforce is the most productive in the world. Unfortunately, we are headed for Draconian influence.

India's day will come as well and they should be prepared for it.

I remember when I was in Asia in the 80's, Taiwan was considered an outsourcing hub, especially for manufacturing. They needed so many heads that they had to import workers from Malaysia and the Philippines.

Guess what ? They can't do it anymore today. Most of their manufacturing work have MOVED to China as their labor cost skyrocketed.

As I said, India's day will come. Salaries in Bangalore for instance are already soaring.
