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.

It's not conventional thinking, but this is how trade works.

Most trade treaties now consider the human element too (like in the case of EU, which allows free people movement for employment, just like free goods movement).

Trading cars for migrant workers is exactly how trade doesn't work.

You're talking nonsense here. EU has a trade and migration deal between the EU member states, not with India.

EU also has a trade deal (agreement) with India that comprises BOTH goods and services (the human export thingy).

Yes, a trade deal for goods and services not a visa free immigration for work.

When I have to go to India, business trip or tourist I also need a visa.

You do need a visa to visit India and likewise, the Indians wanting to work in the EU need visa too.

I don't think there is any talk of visa-free travel for Indian tech workers to the EU.

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.
