If programmers are in short supply become one and make tons of money. If they are over-supplied become an entrepreneur, hire lots of cheap programmers and change the world.

Think positively.

Only thing is cheap programmers generally -- not exclusively -- but generally suck.

If cheap programmers suck, good programmers should be expensive.

In this situation be a good programmer - it's not hard, just requires diligence and methodical learning of new stuff.
