As usual, Bruce Bartlet is full of globaloney.

Infosys to hire 4,500 more techies: (In India)

[MTOrlando]

Bruce Bartlett is a moron. He somehow thinks that $75,000 / yr software engineering jobs are equivalent to $12 / hr construction jobs at the labor pool.

It's important to recognize that these new jobs are almost entirely outside IT. According to Global Insight, the largest beneficiary is construction, which will gain 75,757 net new jobs due to outsourcing. Other industrial gainers are transportation and utilities (63,513), education and health services (47,260), and wholesale trade (43,359).
