Look, Vinod, I don't really have a problem with you when you are not calling us Manchu cattle or anything blatantly racist. And yes, I can admit it, East Asians in general are horrible drivers. In my lifetime, Jeremy Lin has proven we can play professional basketball with the best African Americans, but we'll probably never see a Chinese-American Formula 1 driver that's any good. And the horrible driving has nothing to do with slanted eyes or field of vision, I just think East Asians are easily distracted when driving. Cell phones and in-car gadgets have only made the problem worst.
Now back on topic. If Indian IT really created 175,000 American IT jobs, Americans would definitely feel it. For example, Wipro would go to a top 5 American school and tell the professors they will hire anybody and everybody that graduates from this program. How do I know, because it happened to me. When I was an undergrad, that's exactly what Accenture did. They offered $60 to $75k to every undergrad out of my program (this is mid- 1990's $60,000). Do we see that with Indian IT firms in US colleges now and Accenture has fewer employees today than in the 1990s???
And do you even know how an typical IT projects works in an American bank or MNC. It's usually 50 to 60 full-time "consultants" from PWC or Accenture installing/integrating one piece of enterprise software over two years with a $25 million dollar budget. That $25 million IT project has a 50%+ chance of complete failure. The more Indians on the project, the higher the failure rate. So how many of those $25 million dollar IT projects do you think there has been in the US these past few years at a time of zero growth?? Enough to support 175,000 new Indian IT company hires?? Ridiculous.
You and I know this is a political misinformation campaign to make Americans believe Indians are a net benefit to the US economy. There are many who believe the exact opposite. There are people who actually keep track of the good American companies Indian-American management has completely destroyed. One example is the esteemed Bell Labs. The list is huge, so I won't waste my time on it.
