The real problem for these companies hiring from India and others, is that they ARE paying low wages for the workers. That makes them susceptible to being bribed by other corporations and nations.

If anybody takes a look at the major companies (target, home depot, nemum marcus, etc) that were cracked over the last couple of years, nearly all had windows, and all had outsourced to India. Indian coders are paid around $8K / year. That means that China or Russia can easily bribe somebody for 80K, which is 10 years worth of salary there.

While I agree with your earlier posting, I think that you would have to agree that Putin has put Russia back on the old single party track, with central planning, etc.
Russia looks a great deal like the USSR of old, which is why many of the old eastern European nations that were break-aways, are concerned about Putin.
