I remember about 8 years ago, people who had computer degrees and programming skills could get out of college and make fabulous salaries. Now, many of those same people have been laid off, and people working in that idustry are not making nearly as much as they used to. This all seems to have happened so quickly.

And you think NAFTA and an influx of cheap manual labor did that? The Tech industry grew too fast, and on borrowed money. Supply shot way above demand, and now the industry is going through a correction. So what if computer people have to find other lines of work? It's better than having them work at something not valued.

It's a shame though when people put time, money and effort to go to school, only to see their field die out shortly after they go to work.
