Not to mention a good accountant, good lawyer, decent optometrist, decent dentist, decent doctor.
Not only do lots of those jobs pay better than tech jobs in most places you can also live more easily in cheap, nice places where a nice house can be had for less than 300K.
And their jobs are much, much harder to offshore.
It's interesting how there is this great push to get people to code, pushed by politicians who are almost all lawyers.
You don't see a push for more lawyers or doctors to drop costs. They don't import H1Bs. Try getting a medical or legal licence from another country.
