The person you’re replying to didn’t say there isn’t a labor shortage. Only that the cause of the labor shortage is oft incorrectly identified as solely due to demand.
- randomdata 5y agoA shortage occurs when price is prevented from rising (price gouging laws, for example), where buyers would spend more if they could, but are stopped from doing so. While it is technically possible that the "shit" pay is a result of a price ceiling, that seems highly unlikely. If you have millions to spend on a translator I'm sure nobody is going try and stop you from spending it. What is much more likely is that the demand just isn't there. Someone thinking something would be nice to have does not mean that they are truly in the market.
