Because most large shops I know of now have more indian licenses for Oracle than US, usually dramatically more. Applied Materials for example which is a huge Oracle shop, has a moritorium on hiring anymore US oracle people, if they add a resource it has to be in india. There is no reason to add here, because the sense is that india is where oracle talent resides (after all that is where the Oracle R&D area is).

I wonder if this is what Oracle had in mind when they moved so much of their company offshore. Notice the stock never rallies. Oracle is signing a lot of new licenses, just not in the US. Which means they get far less revenue. You can't sympathize with them because they did this to themselves.
