I work in customer support. Most of my profession is made up of overseas workers, and they do their jobs as well or better than me. In fact, Polish and Ukrainian devs would be overqualified for what I do.
My comment isn't denigrating IT professionals in foreign countries. It's stating that hiring capable, but less credentialed workers is not a losing strategy by default. The parent comment I replied to seemed to assume that replacing domestic employees with foreign employees was the fast track to business ruin. I happen to disagree with that.
