" just a shortage at the price the employer is willing to pay." - preach it.
In a fair market, price goes up to increase the supply.
For example lawyers. I'm paying $600 /hr. Plenty of them around, no shortage.

Actually, I suspect I know the answer in many cases, but I'm curious what other people think.
Maybe not trial lawyers or other positions where you need a warm body in the courtroom, but entry level lawyers are feeling the outsourcing squeeze as well.
I would certainly pay an amazing engineer $600/hr if I could call on them at any time and get billed at increments of 6 minutes, but that would be an insane way to build software (I know lawyers who think its an insane way to do law, but it is the system).
