I disagree about corporate greed. Yes, I support profit margins but the
margin of profit making by these corporates is obnoxious. Recently, the
company I used to work for gave their higher management bonuses in the 5 figure
amounts plus stock options (which were not disclosed) after the jobs were moved
to third world countries (India, Brazil and Argentina).

Oh, piffle. Mainframe installations are hiring Indian mainframers, to some
extent, sure; but that simply proves that there are still mainframers to be
hired, in India if nowhere else. It's no part of the shortage-of-mainframers
problem.
As for "corporate greed", corporations want to reduce costs, yes -- and how is
that different from anyone else? In trying to reduce costs corporations
sometimes make short-sighted decisions and later rue them -- and, again, how is
that different from you and me?

No surprise. All the Mainframers lost their jobs when their positions were
outsourced to India, Brazil, Philippines because of corporate greed.
