I feel like this might as well have been titled "Where has all the cheap, legal labor gone?"
The answer is probably as simple as they aren't offering enough pay or benefits to attract employees. This is probably an indicator that the average employee is finally getting a little more power in the Employee/Employer relationship, at least in the areas where this is true.
I would love for workers to be able to confidently expect to be able to leave a job that is mistreating them and get a new job right away. As for now, it's relatively common to be asked to work off the clock, not get paid for overtime, or work in conditions that are awful as a low-wage worker.
