We live in a global economy. All workers, worldwide, are stakeholders in it. Jobs move around the world. I don't see a general issue here - I see a lot of personal ones. Career changes are more and more necessary for many reasons. This can be one of them.

A massive reorganization of processes and economic shifts is occurring. To whatever degree it occurs, given the complex geo-political factors involved, economic reorganization is a rapidly evolving world reality. No one is free from that. Make your plans accordingly.
the problem with that is while developing countries are retooling and retraining their workforce, the USA does not have something to retool and retrain to.

The technical crop of people that were burgeoning in the late 90's a good majority of them have been displaced mid to late in their career making retraining even more difficult.
