I don't know about France, but in the U.S., those complaints just mean it's become difficult to get H1B workers, not that they feel the need to pay anybody any more. The hope is that their complaints will be answered by a Republican congress allowing them more cheap, disposable labor, not a recognition that labor generally needs to be paid more.
