On the Computer Professional and Freelancer Roundtable:
IBM has started new program, "Project Match" to help displaced American and Canadian workers relocate to India, Brazil, et al.
...
"workers will be paid according to prevailing norms in the countries to which they relocate. In many cases, that could be substantially less than what they earned in North America."
Let me see if I understand what's happening.
There aren't enough North Americans qualified to do the job, so IBM is moving the work to a place where there are plenty of qualified workers. But there aren't enough qualified workers there, so IBM has to recruit those people they just laid off for being unqualified.
