    You didn't spend anytime reading the OP did you.

    I've been reading this thread trying to discern what your argument actually is. You seem to hop from 'its racist' to 'offshoring is ok' to some lightweight economic arguments.

    I made the OP quite specific in the hope that it would stimulate some reasoned debate and AVOID getting bogged down in irrelevant offshoots. But you managed to screw that up. Funny thing about people who don't want to take the time to understand something is that they always try and bring everyone down to their level.

        Yes, given the current state of the market the best strategy appears to be to re-skill in something different than IT.
        I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

          Most reasonably intelligent people can buy a book and "skill" themselves in a given programming language in a few months at the most. Low barriers to entry - hence the commoditisation of IT.

          So yes reskill in something that has high barriers to entry either because (1) it is a closed shop, like being a barrister in England or (2) requires an IQ in the top level of the population or (3) requires a long series of gruelling exams like chartered accountancy.

          As (1) or (2) are not possible for you, I would suggest (3).

            Sp*nk-rag
            yeesss, but what type of sp*nk-rag are we talking here ?

            The Aristotelian idealist 'form' of the sp*nk-rag or the Marxist dialectical materialist 'actual' sp*nk-rag


            I am not sure
