We tried that before, outsourcing was a huge trend maybe 20-30 years ago?

The problem is the second part of your sentence. There's a reason that particular business practice settled into a niche of call centers.

It turned out that good workers want to be paid what they are worth, regardless of location. Everything, including labor, is priced based on what people will pay for it - not what it costs to produce.

You're quite out of touch. If you think outsourcing is a telco niche you should check again.
Outsourcing is bigger than it’s ever been in all sectors of atleast technology.
