I have a fraternity brother that makes his income outsourcing IT jobs to Russia. The currency in that country is quite depressed in comparison to American monetary scales. So, he bids online for jobs that he farms out to IT workers in the former USSR. He pockets a ton of money doing this. My question to him, in our friendly debate is: when does it end? When it affect YOU? Eventually, the outsourcers may find themselves outsourced. The problem is not inferiority: it is price.
