If there were a talent shortage, the surest sign would be an increase in average wages after adjusting for inflation over the past 10 or 20 years. That would mean salaries would be significantly more than 23% higher than 2005 or 57% higher than in 1995 for approximately the same skill level. That's not the case so I don't think there's a real shortage.
