If so, so what? Those jobs are going to be done off-shore anyway Whether they're done well or poorly doesn't matter - and certainly isn't going to be affected by whether you answer a question or not.

In my experience, doing a professional favor is never wasted. You don't always get the favor back from the one you help (and there are some selfish nithlings in the local writing and high-tech communities, let me tell you), but you'll often find that you get a favor back from someone else who hears of your decency. One way or another, it comes back to you.
