[opportune]

Because people from KY can freely move to CA/NY/WA and people from India can't, it's a lot harder to exploit the people in Kentucky to work for wages that are significantly less than what they're worth.

If Kentucky was a good outsourcing hub, then the good developers would eventually just leave to find better jobs, unless the local jobs paid almost as well, in which case it doesn't make much sense to continue outsourcing to Kentucky! Borders prevent Indians and Eastern Europeans from doing this
