InfoWorld 2004 Salary Survey Results

Posted by michael on from the ka-ching dept.

tverbeek writes "InfoWorld has released the results of their Salary Survey for 2004 [pdf], and in the intro they declare that there's less bad news and more optimism, as IT budgets and salaries in particular are starting to creep back up. So now we get to witness the curious phenomenon of Lake Anti-Wobegone, as all the techies we hear from complain that their salaries are still below 'average'."

    Furthermore, fundamentalists sects are a common element of American history and literature. Your assertion that most people know them from the distorted lens of the media is a distortion in its own right.

    When was the last time you heard a Mennonite lobbying for anything? When was the last time you heard a Seventh Day Adventist lobbying for anything? When was the last time you heard an angry mob of home schoolers lobbying for anything, much less screaming at the top of their lungs, "WE'RE HERE! WE'RE QUEER! AND WE NOT GOING AWAY!!!"

    By and large, these people just want to be left alone. It's the tyranny we call "The Government" [aided by its allies in the media, the universities, the unions, and the professions] which seeks to destroy them, not the other way around.
