Re: AS/400,ILE,CL400 - CONSULTANTS ON-SITE /OFF-SHORE PROJECT - MULTIPLE ( 3

What you are reading my friends is the result of lobbying.

There is an endless lobbying for increase of immigration of people with
Hi-tech skills.

Do the math:
in 2000 where the salary of a programmer with 5 years exp was $90,000
yearly,
in 2002 the same is paid $70,000.
In 2000 where the hourly pay was $80, in 2002 the same is $60.
How much lobbying that difference can buy?

Again, Consultants should hire lobbyists.

Referent to the guys that are happy, VERY happy, to receive $22/hour,
working 10 hours/day and billing 8
(and there are a lot, believe me, plenty and all around, myself saw and
worked with people that was getting that money (and with masters sundry in
computers , as per their say)), the organization that brings them in have
slogans like:
"Support of those legally trying to immigrate" and
"elimination of difficulties" and
"interface between the immigrants and the executive and legislative
branches" and
"within the framework of the Constitution", and once they have em all
rounded up, get the $100/hour and pay the poor guys $22.

It is called entrepreneurship.
Could not we be entrepreneurs too?
