Yes, today one can argue that there is a shortage of talent, however Paul's 
point was that that I s not the first problem to solve, in fact the problem 
that must be solved first is:

" We're in a hole, here, folks. The first thing we should do is: stop digging.”

... and he is right IMHO!

on page 9:
  The bottom line.  The longstanding failure of OPM's leadership to
implement basic cyber
hugiene, such as maintaining current authorities to operate and
employing strong multi-factor
authentication,  despite years of warnings from the Inspector General,
