- hx8 6mo agoJust to take one step further, labor costs are largely a function of local real estate costs.
- JumpCrisscross 6mo ago> labor costs are largely a function of local real estate costs Difficult to determine causality in that system. All we can say is places with expensive labour tend to have expensive real estate. (The confounding variable, I imagine, is immigration.)
- carlosjobim 6mo agoTo add to that; labour should be expensive. And lower repairability of consumer goods is a side effect that is worth dealing with for that benefit.
