Ondanks de verkiezingsretoriek rond het outsourcen van arbeid naar lage-lonenlanden, zit het er dik in dat ook onder president John Kerry de stroom van banen naar vooral Aziatische landen gewoon door zal gaan. Volgens vertegenwoordigers van de IT-bedrijven in India, de National Association of Software and Service Companies (NASSCOM), zal het bij retoriek blijven. Woordvoerder Kiran Karnik: "If you know the track history of Senator Kerry he is a supporter of free trade. Kerry must address the issue of unemployment and job-creation (but) his focus will not be at our cost. […] Recent research has shown that job loss due to outsourcing in the US is very small and it benefits all the corporations who outsource."
Mukul Aggarwal, vice-president van Unisys India, dat veel werk voor Amerikaanse bedrijven doet: "The US is the biggest votary of free trade and free economy. They just cannot close the tap. The other fact is that in the US there is a shortage of trained manpower. […] Long-term demographics is in favour of India and China." Volgens onderzoeksbureau Forrester Research zullen in de komende 15 jaar meer dan 3 miljoen Amerikaanse banen naar Azië verdwijnen. Volgens de regering van India is het ook helemaal geen probleem voor de VS. "For every dollar that is outsourced by US business to India, the US insources at least 10 dollars of business from India," aldus de minister van financiën van het land.
