Personally, I think there needs to be a manditory minimum wage for all
US-based companies or companies doing business in the US. They must
pay the same wage to all employees, regardless of where they are
employed, and it must be a comparable wage for the particular field.
That will stop outsourcing to India because companies will be required
to pay them the same rates as US workers or face stiff fines.
