It may, indeed, but I think the new battle lines seem to be not between races, but between the haves and the have-nots.
The best advice I can think of for anyone who thinks there's the slightest possibility your job might be sold out to the foreigners is to start brainstorming about starting your own business, even just a side-line to start with. Base it out of your home, at least at first. Get independent of large corporations. I'm doing this, and while it's not very successful yet, I am making some money and doing things I like to do (writing and coaching people for fitness and triathlons.)
I'm trying to nudge my husband into talking with some of his entrepreneurial-minded friends and starting some sort of software or web-based business. Of course, if the S really H's TF, that'll probably go down.
But it's something.
Start thinking about what you can do to work for yourself, or with your friends! You don't have to plan it all out in one day--it will evolve. Just start thinking about getting free from the corporate shackles. (I did this 2 years ago because I just couldn't stand how I was treated. I was a mechanical engineer.)
