The industry is already going Galt. I quit years ago and am now writing a game while living for peanuts in Mexico, along with a friend who did the same.
The best dev I know works for Corsair and basically does nothing at all, working from home, while making $150k to occasionally poke some hardcore OBS code.
Another skilled dev I know is about to buy some land in the Rockies, build an Uncle Ted cabin, and just retire to the woods. He's 31, I think, and writes drivers for a living.
