Of course it can be both a long term trend AND not cost effective.

It can be, but its unlikely. Why would the less effective process become the dominant process in a dynamic economy like the US?

The reason it is long term is because once the Venture Capital firms have decided to demand that all startup do their develoment in India, then there will be very few startups that can disprove the wisdom of this strategy (because they will not be funded).

But the few US companies that DO do their development onshore will beat the offshore model startups (if your theory is correct), and the VCs will follow the money and come back onshore. The VCs will go with whatever works.

I find it hard to believe you don't think the US economy will figure out the superior process. Capitalism will cause the superior model to prevail.
