Hey, if the friction is low enough, go for the outsourcing. Every large American bank is growing their Indian office since they get paid 30% as much. That's basically privately importing software.
Evidently though, there's a demand for workers that sit in the office in the US, otherwise they wouldn't be hiring so many people at a higher wage. It would be interesting to see what happens if that supply is restricted, because while e.g. Google doesn't abuse H1B labor, a hell of a lot of large firms that have sub-par pay do.
