Why should we insist on keeping low skill low wage jobs here, in place of high skill high wage jobs?

We aren’t keeping either type of job...given the move of high tech to places like India...I have a friend who works for EDS...bought out by HP...they are cutting 25,000 jobs-15,000 in the US...I also saw Sprint replace an entire floor of Americans with H1B visa workers. All my credit cards have service centers in India...or other places-not in the US. Banker jobs are being exported and Citi has H1B visa workers in the US...during a time of record unemployment... there are few safe jobs these days. How about IBM basically moving to India. Globalism is bad for this country period.
