    If you can’t find workers, pay more and people will come. It’s not a labour shortage. It’s an abundance of greed.

    My baby boomer parents worked in factories because they could afford a family and buy a house. I don’t work in that factory because wages are stagnant. There’s no incentive for employers to increase them when you can simply exploit overseas workers who will work for a pittance.

    There is no labour shortage.
