Why all the complaints about docs being squeezed?

Because the squeezing of doctors that you're proposing is artificial and seemingly punitive, not the market's doing. When programmers get squeezed, it's the market doing what the market is supposed to do. The market will shift programming work to whomever and wherever the work can most efficiently be done. If some political authority were manipulating programmer salaries, I'd take exception to that. But what is happening to programmers is healthy in our system. Sure, individuals stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time get hurt just as buggy whip workers once got hurt. But the system and the individuals in it adjust over time and it works.
