Well, a lot has changed since 2007. I'd argue that programmers are held in high regard now--witness all of the news articles in the past year about "software engineers taking over the world". Further, the work conditions might be better? Maybe it differs by where you're working, but every hip software company out there touts its awesome facilities and free food and free everything.

The media you follow might have these articles, but most of the world still don't know much about programmers or hold them in high regard. If you work in Silicon Valley, I'd say it's a bubble, outside of which people think very differently about ICT.
