> I never heard a low-paid worker throw this argument. It always comes from people who have better jobs and more stable income I grew up in dirt poor family of 6 in a post civil war country and my mother is a nurse - I'm very familiar with the realities of these jobs. I just know for a fact that if a nurse would start making 2x her salary a lot of people would suddenly not have access to assisted care. It's a shitty situation - but supply of cheap labor solves the problems of poor people - if you can't see that you're out of touch. Rich and well off people will always have access - they already pay more anyway for quality.
