This will work until wage rates flatten out across the globe which will over a period of time. First work shifts to low cost execution locations. Then workers would shift to such countries thus flattening the wage curve. I feel the second stage in evolution of outsourcing would be when skills and expertise become the cause for outsourcing. Companies which merely play on cost advantage will fold up and only those with competency advantage will survive and thrive.
