Remeber the "great sucking sound" Perot warned Americans about when NAFTA was being debated? All those jobs going overseas and being filled by people willing to work for less?

Perot Systems to increase workforce in India

Washington, February 7
Perot Systems, the computer services company founded by former presidential candidate Ross Perot, is all set to add about 3,500 jobs in India and move into two new facilities there this year.
Most of the growth will come from a call centre and medical claims processing business, whose employee numbers are expected to rise to 2,800 workers from 800, said a report in the Star Telegram, published from Dallas, Texas.
An entry-level computer programmer in India is paid $7,000 to $8,000 a year, compared with $40,000 to $50,000 in the US.
Perot Systems said the additional workers in India are expected to be mostly health claims processors in Chennai. Another new facility in Bangalore might start later this year.
