Good answer. The American dollar has such enormous buying power in the East, that it will be a while before out-sourcing to India for instance is priced out of the market.
What is a more insidious danger to the USA is that India software houses will gain the commercial insight into Western corporate and consumer software purchasing decisions that will enable them to address the larger issues that go beyond just churning out 'duct-tape' code.. usability, scalability, Web-interfacing, marketing channels etc. etc... then they'll turn into formidable competition for the West.
