For the record, I don't buy the whole "America is best thing" and I most certainly don't have a dog in the whole patriotic-flag-waving-bs fight either. And yes, I've been on the receiving end of what would be politely described as "poor" US talent, so I'm acutely aware that not everything in the garden is rosy.

I am also not disputing that there is a proportion of companies out there who go to India for all the best reasons, a genuine quest for talent.

But sadly, I think we have to accept the reality that such companies are very much in the minority. The reality, sadly, is that the majority of companies who outsource to India only do so for one reason. Aggressive cost-cutting.
