I would say that you are rather wrong. When the US economy goes down they will outsource more of the protected work to third world countries where they can get it done cheaper. Manufacturing industries will be the hardest hit as the foreign inflow to them will reduce in Rupee value. And then again - IT Coolies are skilled labourers so they will still be in the demand. ;-) cheers

Although I don't agree with Aparna, In the event US economy goes down, It won't really increase outsourcing work unlike in dot com bust era. The real reason is dollar depreciation and rupee appreciation.
