Hi Mon,

you are absolutely correct. All good developers have a well paid job. There are shortage of good .Net developers in US and Canada. I get more than my capacity projects from this region.

Why this happens?
Here in Universities, I am familiar that in Inida is similar, for study are used MS products, while in the US universities are used Java and C++. My son will start study next year in US and I reviewed most of the universities programs.

That is the reason fresh labor force to be not familiar with .Net. They have to learn at their own, but why to lose their time if there are enough jobs for Java programmers ;-)+ to come in industry which outsource to low income country is not a good choice as salary benefits.

Current iconomic situataion is that. May be this will not satisfy you, but according me you have 2 choices - to hire a person who has logical thinking and to train him/her or to outsource, too.
