The main reason businesses go for short term contracts (which are
usually more expensive) is because is damn hard to find programmers
out there to hire. Its a very, very tight market for employers.

It's almost as bad as the airlines there are programmers out there but no
one wants to pay the labor rates! So they outsource it to the u.s. prison
system or overseas to a poor third world country where people work for
almost nothing.

I am not going to spend 30-50k to learn new devices and languages and spend
1/4 of a year in classes to make 70-80K for maybe 2 years. Now back in the
day mid to late 90's I was paid to take the classes from the client or
provided contracts from leading device/component manufactures for attending.
Money was great 3 to 4 times what's paid now then rapidly declined when they
were able to outsource or bring in foreign workers and get tax breaks!!
