No, both parties want the laws of supply and demand to only work for employers, not employees. There are lots of qualified, older IT workers.

So, working for employees, too...

"lots of" means the price goes down. But I bet many are not willing to take a salary cut to match what the supply/demand says.

So protectionists try to pretend it's not real.

My company has instituted a hiring freeze. Other companies are cutting salaries.

Your schtick is getting very stale. You should allow some reality to occasionally intrude into your views.
