Yes. And when people say there is a shortage of food, they mean "at the price they are willing to pay". But new engineers and new foodstuffs will not spring into existence when you add a zero to the price - therefore there is a shortage.
You might want to say but oh, more people will become engineers if salaries are higher! But that doesn't ship products this summer.
