Funny that all the news articles I read where a restaurant or business increases their starting wage to north of $13/hour, they get thousands of applicants. I think it's amazing that all the free market advocates don't want a free market for labor. If employers want more employees, they simply have to pay more. Workforce participation is at a low because workers in low paying jobs have looked around and realized their jobs suck, are low paying, and are looking to change to a better career.
