Are you opposed to an increasing standard of living?

Not at all.

I am opposed to:

1. Constant b---g in press and, more disturbingly, on this forum about how badly this sector is hit: they've got to be fair and admit that they've had it very well for a long, long time; now life is simply returning to normal.

2. Those screaming for protectionism not entertaiing the thought that they may've priced themselves out of the market.

I don't get it . . . if EE salaries have leveled-off after rising for 10 years, then what about all those H1-B workers that were allegedly driving the salaries down?

[sarcasm]

What's normal - $ 6000/year like Indians will accept?

Have offered to take a cut in your pay because you're overpaid and had it very, very well for a long, long time?
