There is no shortage of core IT skills, there is a shortage of people willing to pay for them.

Auditing, project mgt, are overwhelmingly financed, while IT skills, or any operational skill for that matter, are considered to be of little value and are paid three time less than the previous ones. No wonder a guy with 10 years of experience on a core IT skill would rather do some word/power point/ms project for three time the net income, rather than being underpaid at what he excels...
