    It would increase the wages in India and at some point the pay would equal to the person who lives in the USA.

    You would make a fantastic fantasy writer. 🥲

      May be or may be not.

      But it’s the reality, people work at India get 8 to 10% rise every year as an average. How about people in the USA?

        1. No, that’s not something that’s common.
        2. India also has ~6-7% inflation based on official numbers, with the chance of it being much higher in reality. So even those who get hikes are only gaining just a bit more to keep their head above water.
