Root cause of outsourcing and H1B abuse is the disrespect for scientists and engineers in America and Euro Zone

There is not much incentives for becoming engineers and scientist in America any more. Every kid start thinking of making big bucks as an attorney or investment banker or a physician. Why do the hard math and science? There is little respect for it in the system any way. Engineers and scientists are the sharpest brain of any country. But today, in America and Western Europe they are slowly becoming ‘tools’ of trade.

There is no need of scientists and engineers because there is a magic wand called H1B. When you need someone sharp just import him or her and keep increasing the H1B quota. The quota ended for the year – no problem – outsources. Why bring them here? Just ship the job there.

America still possesses the sharpest scientific and engineering brains. But the incentive for becoming a famous engineer and scientist is going down slowly but steadily.

The colleges face serious problem. The math skills are actually declining rapidly. Every body is sure India and China will provide the analytical brain. Everyone wants to become the chief – there is no ‘Indian’ left.

HIB and Outsourcing is killing American dream. It is depressing the salaries of qualified scientists and engineers sharply. That in turn is depressing the desire of young people to science and engineering.

Interestingly, the President of India is the country’s top most space scientist. He was chosen president because of his scientific and technical achievements. When will that day come in America or Euro Zone?

If scientists and engineers ever get their fair share of recognition and remuneration in America, there will be no need of H1B and outsourcing from abroad.
