Good thing. Trust me on that.

Yea, I expect a resurgence in a couple of years in the market.

I'm actually coming around the idea that we need a IT union. And H1-B
reform. And so on. I do believe in free markets, but I'm not sure that means
the free
exchange of labor and jobs.

On the other hand, I think the US can hold on to it's lead in innovation for
quite some time, especially in IT, if we work on it.

Also, there is a bubble of boomers that will be retiring in the next ten
years as well. Productivity increases will be needed to keep things
together, and that means better and more IT.

And if all else fails, there's the health industry. Nursing Degree, here I
come. (I could do an M.D., but I'm not that nuts/desperate. Yet.)
