I've been telling IT companies for 10 years that if they all relay on 'others' to train their workers while they only hire the experienced ones... None new will be trained with obvious results. As a developer I'm 'fine' with this as it drives my price to many times the median salary. But its not just IT. Our entire economy is crying about the lack of EXPERIENCED workers. But on the other hand there are still soo many unemployed, especially among the young (often unregistered and thus missing from statistics). No wonder seeing how there are almost no entry level jobs offered. I used to belive in the 'not enough programmers' line. Now I think it's just yet another unsustainable way to avoid to actually do the necessary socialy responsible tasks that are part of doing business. Train your damn workers and take responsibility for the short-sighted decisions you made years ago. Companies are like children. They will constantly try to push the limit in their own short-sighted interests. Its the job of government to, in the name of wider society, play the role of the parent and make sure that the negative effects of decisions are primarily felt by those who made the decisions.
