Re:Alleged shortage of programmers (Score 1)

I'm surprised that this post is rated "insightful". The person did not provide any evidence of his claim that IT shortage is a myth, while both government and independent agencies have reported studies of over 800,000 IT positions unfilled. The person also is repeating the same old rhetoric that has been posted hundreds of times on every other online tech news source (try zdnet). If you want some credibility, provide some concrete evidence of your claim that there's no IT shortage. It's easy to get protective and paranoid about your job - it's even more convenient to find fault somewhere else other than within yourself when things don't go as you wish.
