This always have been the case, I think. If not with IT then with other jobs in the world. Teachers and healthcare workers have been criminally underpaid, and yet they don't all quit. Which really sucks but shows that the issue is not that simple.

Oh. It is that simple. Start with stomaching the thought that if they were quitting, they wouldn't be paid slave wages :)

J. Peterson had a very very good talk about holding your ground and why some people fail at it.

That's exactly the point I wanted to make. Which is why there's no need to fear for OSS - there will be plenty to develop it anyways.
