What can be done about many of the USAs tech jobs moving to India?

Answer 1

The Internet is a double edged sword. Today anything that doesn't require ones personal presents can be done over the Internet. The well to do of the 1st World are complacent. The poor of the 1st world believe they're entitled. Both no longer feel that contributing to society is a responsibility of the individual. No one is even considering what will happen when the energy crisis collides with the Baby-boomers' retirement bill.

Many don't wish to take the challenging classes. We also don't have the facilities to build most of the products we use today.

It is unlikely for the 1st world to stay the 1st world.

Answer 2

When Americans with technical degrees and skills are willing to work for 10 bucks an hour or less, the jobs will stop moving to India and both Americans and Indians will be happy because they have employment.

Answer 3

Somehow make Indian wages more expensive than US wages for the same job. Which won't happen, at least not for a long, long time. Even then, they would most likely be outsourced to a different emerging technological country who could pay their tech employees less than US employees.

In a word, nothing.

Answer 4

Raise hell! Those people who say that nothing can be done are either profiting from the outsourcing or simply don't know what the hell they are talking about. The fact that the citizens of this country stopped the immigration bill should tell everyone that we still run this country. We the people just have to raise enough hell and it will change.

I'm not a damned globalist. I'm an American and I have just begun to fight!

Answer 5

lower wages in USA, increase in education for IT in USA, higher wages in india.

the question you ask is a natural result of capitalism, thus nothing can be done short of restricting free trade. companies will always go for the cheapest option (balanced with ligitmacy and relaibility) thus to remain competative, the USA needs to either increase eduaction to show that it can do something different to what the indians offer, or workers need to choose to accept competative wages and pay.

this will all eventually even out as workers in india expect higher wages, but then comanies will jsut seek elsewhere for their chear labour, unless you offer something no one else can offer, then you are an exception to the rule.

Answer 6

Move to India. If you really want to answer the phone all day for a living, then you can move to a place where your skill is a commodity.

Answer 7

Convince Americans to stop the unionized workforce so that Companies might have a chance of making things a little cheaper over here so they don't need to employ cheep labour over there.

Unions won't let it happen. Soon there will be none left, however, and Companies will be able to start all over again, after they find all the things they're buying from China are actually killing them, like here in Canada. (Toothpaste laced with antifreeze, children's toys painted with lead paint, and so on.)

Answer 8

Go and tell Indian people in India to stop working. Nothing you can do about it I'm afraid.

Answer 9

You are in essence moving or keepings jobs overseas every time you buy a foreign made product. Are you buying American? It is not an easy task, especially when you compare prices.

Answer 10

I doubt anything can or will be done. Ever notice the word "competitive" has been substituted for "cheap labor" by the corporations? Profits is profits.
