Java salaries low, lol...
yes, they are. but java programmers believe that they are

Of course, the more Java programmers you have (and you have a
lot), the
less you need to pay. A dime a dozen. These are the rules of
the same
market that hypes languages like Java. Ain't no rocket
sciences. Sure,
if you've managed to become a
software-architecture-project-manager guru
somewhere, you'll get a good salary. But all the coders from
entry to
mid level don't get that much, because they are "replaceable",
as they say.
Another thing about Java (a social aspect) is that everybody,
not just
programmers, have heard of it somehow. So to be a "Java
developer"
sounds good and acceptable. People can vaguely imagine some
sort of
programming / IT thing. It's the perfect job to mention to
your future
in-laws, ha ha ha.
Lets just say my employer consulting fees and what I get from
them, keep my accountant very very very happy.

Let's just say that you've been in that game for a long time now.
Ask someone who is looking for a job with Java right now. An
entry level job. Different story. But maybe things are different
in different countries.
