Not sure but.. some people I know who work in less well paying office type jobs (perhaps with a large data entry component), see the trend and think they want to get into programming. But they just don't enjoy it whatsoever. Their preferred approach is going to the cheapest college course they find, passing the courses by the skin of their teeth and then showing up with diploma in hand at a job interview. But unfortunately that process doesn't leave them able to contribute much and the employers know it.
