I think what you are really referring to is the IT workforce that is off-shore — i.e. they never come to the US, your phone call for IT support goes to India or wherever.
I think that is the result of the expensive regulations US companies face in the US, which also virtually eliminated manufacturing jobs in the US.
If the government would cut back on all the useless regulations that increases the cost to the companies, they would be more able and willing to hire workers in the US.
The H1B visa seems to only allow a few thousand employees in the entire nation per year, that cannot possibly cause a major problem, but as I said, it’s easier to blame that program, to take attention away from the mass invasion of unqualified illegal immigrant who will be costing all taxpayers significant amount of money.

No I am referring to the onshore jobs in an onshore/offshore model of business. There are less jobs than there used to be, but there is still plenty of onshore work. I deal with this every day and know the model well. There is really not that much that is fully managed by the outsourcer in the high end engagements.

Unfortunately, most people in the US have no idea that this is such a huge problem. The number of IT H1-B's are staggering.
