PHP developers are much much more qualified than Python/Ruby/Java devs for the same price in my area. You can hire PHP dev who can TDD for $10/hour. Or you can have a Ruby junior who brags about Ruby and cannot ship things

10$? and you want a "good" developer? good developer in my area start at 30+ euro
Id say in the UK the contract rate is more like 60-70 Euros or £50 ph for an experienced developer maybe -20% for a very junior developer though most serious contract developers quote a day rate
yeah good senior developer are around 60 to 70 euro here too
There's a whole world outside EU and US.
