That won't happen.

Famous last words. The diploma mills in India (or elsewhere) can print up an MBA or JD, or any other degree or certification, just as they have been doing for Computer Science degrees and certifications for the last few years.

Whatever it is that you do, there's someone overseas who will do it cheaper -- either there, or we can import them to do it here. Quality doesn't count. The whole purpose is to relieve you of your income and assets.

You seem to be stating that an illeterate with a phony degree can do the same job that an American with many years of education and experience can. If so, then they should be doing the job. Geez, just to think that American companies are paying a hundred grand a year and more to for employees that are doing jobs which can be done by illiterate forigners. People who can't even read or write. No wonder we can't seem to compete in the world market anymore! But ... why don't we just hire our own American illiterates? They're not as good as Foreign illiterates?

This is a common practice in the East. Phony professionals with phony degrees and phony titles are the rule rather than exception. The foreign companies in this part of the world frequently give employees impressive sounding titles such as "Director of Maintainence" when in fact they are a taxi driver escorting the expatriates from job site to job site. The expat makes $180k and the director about 5k.

It is still the 3rd world out there although things are changing fast. One thing every Indian and Pakistani engineer wants is out of their mothers country.
