I look at it as a simple trade of goods. Hiring a Software Engineer from India is like an Indian buying a German car.

If Germany can export cars to India and France can export wines, then India can export their talent.

So, if you are confident of your skills and what they are worth, you should naturally go to the USA.

The best way to export talent is to export the product of talent. That's what Germans do when they export their cars. They don't send German graduates all over the world; they build cars in Germany and export them. India can do the same with software.

It's actually a better system for everyone. Mass migration is very disruptive, whereas trade in goods and services tends to be less controversial.
