Personally speaking exporting more to China and India is pretty much killing my line of work (animator) substantial proportion of the actual artwork side of making series, e.c.t, all goes off to India and China thus very little work for people here. I would be happy getting paid a pretty basic wage but even that still can’t match production cost that overseas can offer.

That was a polite sum up of my feelings.
I do not mean outsource your job away. If you are exporting your creative juice then you sell without transferring your core skills(trade secrets). Otherwise, once they have learned the trick of your trade i.e. trade secrets, then there will no further need for your service.
If companies keep transferring their skills (trade secrets) abroad then in the long run they will only make themselves uncompetitive because they have cheaper labour.
