I'm not so sure that this is blatant. I know of a few guys in my local
user group, (who work for smaller shops) that probably actually need all
those skills.

Remember the laughing boardroom commercial "People"

"Jobs being advertised where they wanted to have: An RPG programmer who
was also an MCSE, who would manage operations of not just the As400, but
all PC's, be a PC troubleshooter, etc. These listings were clearly
designed to ask for so much that an American worker could not have all of
the skills necessary to fill the job, thereby letting the company use an
H1-B. I saw one job advertised on Dice that was so absurd that I couldn't
believe it."
