That depends on what type of work is required.  If they want a junior resource 
for data entry or something like that, then it could be ok.

Also keep in mind that some recruiting firms are getting their job requirements 
from other firms, who are getting it from other firms, and so on.  This is how 
you get a client paying $200/hour or more and expecting a decent Remedy 
developer, while the "developer" gets paid $50/hour and doesn't even know the 
difference between an Active Link and Filter, and thinks ITIL is what they do 
before planting a garden.

For the person with the job requirement that started this conversation, my 
suggestion would be not to ask for four people at a mediocre rate, but rather 
to combine the positions, perhaps bringing in two people, paying one person 
$115/hour and the other $85/hour.  That can still be lower than what I've seen, 
but you can get much better quality folks that way.

Is it because of the Credit Cruch that people think rates can go down?
Of course I don't know any specific details about this engagement but
in my opinion 50 dollars / hour for somebody with 3-5 years of
experience is just too low...
