Though based on your handle (send jobs to India), there are going to be some major changes with this philosophy in the next few years as companies are finding out that having their development done in India is not as cost worthy or productive as they thought it to be. Innovation has and always has come from the US and there is going to be some soul searching among companies who have sent jobs in mass to India.
Also, on a secondary level, I think this is going to also result in the secondary and lower level jobs that will stay in those countries and companies here forced to hire Americans and maybe send them to India and other places to do management and supervisory type jobs to produce american standard quality. That does not exist currently in quite a few of the programs coming out of India as I have seen that first hand...

During the .COM years, quite a few people (techies amount others) made a lot of money with nothing to show for it. Lot of people also lost money but stories abound of techies who had hundreds of thousands of dollars and maybe even millions in stock options building products that few if anyone really wanted. A lot of them are out of work now and a lot of big corporations have had to make up those losses. Their solution has to be exporting of jobs to India but I think there are going to be facing a lot of big problems with these moves.
