You're over dramatizing offshoring. I believe the general consensus from economists is that offshoring has a beneficial effect on the economy of both parties. It really isn't the case you can just send your programming work to India and see it be done, people who used to program it now design it and provide advise. By your dramatization, we should see huge increases in unemployment. But we don't, our unemployment is at a historical low. And what do you mean by "the guy who is here is now poor and the guy over there is still poor", that's the whole point: he isn't and neither are you. He has a job that pays less than yours but that's better paying than he used to had. You're creating jobs.
