No we shouldn't be 'complaining'. As tech workers we have it better than most professions in the United States. However that doesn't mean we should be happy that the powers that be are conspiring against us to not pay us what we are truly worth. Any profession shouldn't accept collusion against them by corporations, regardless of what they're currently paid.

Lawyers can charge hundreds of dollars an hour but no one begrudges them that because that is what the market for their services is. Maybe the market for strong IT workers will land in that range too if the market was allowed to work.
