You are of course making the assumption that there's this enormous well of brilliant programmers who aren't getting hired simply because they're not white males...
And to the third point, the "labor shortage" is BS, this has been debated a thousand times.

2. A lot of those groups are weirdly underrepresented in the American tech industry
3. That means we're wasting a lot of great programming talent at a time when we badly need it.

Does this make any sense to you? If no, your own statement should not either.
