The Data Scientist "shortage" is another scam by the big tech companies to drive down wages. My boss had hundreds of applications for the position he was looking to fill and the majority were so well qualified that it was basically a coin flip between multiple PhDs with great resumes.

Tech worker's arrogance reminds me of "made in the USA" factory workers who thought their jobs were safe. If people don't start pushing back wages will be pushed down to global equilibrium. Based on how things are going I'm predicting neo-feudalism thanks to the joys of open-boarders globalism putting all power into the hands of corporations.
