Money matters. If and only if the other professions can provide parity in pay, people are going to follow thier passion. It is a practical problem. There will be a solution for this - but sadly it will be after a disaster. Once we have practically all talented people absorbed into IT and ITES, our social fabric will fail. That will be the time when pays will become equal.
