The book has a pretty good description of how to escape prison…

The thing is: it’s nothing new. In early 2000s there was a wave of outsourcing that caused panic in the US. Back then, the difference in salaries was even higher than nowadays. In some cases it worked out well for the employers, but in many cases it did not for various reasons.
