>>>being paid a fraction of US wages -- with no benefits, I would assume, such a health, life insurance and STOCK OPTIONS, why would such a serf WANT to create new technology patentable only by the corporate employer?<<< In the offshore companies I've been involved with, the employees received health/life insurance and stock options AND received a salary that put them solidly in the middle class. This is what globalization is all about....raising the standard of living around the world. All Americans can compete with this and benefit from it except those that sit around and whine about it and don't take the initiative to remain competitive in the job market that is still alive and well in the good old USA.
