“Labor crunch” = “need to raise salaries to attract people”

Yep, and that will in turn raise the prices of goods and services.


Yes it will, but you could always open up the borders like Germany and let illegals start driving trucks at minimum wage to keep prices down.

That's the swamp way of doing things. And it has hurt Americans for years.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but it is what will happen.

People like to complain about Wal-Mart pressuring suppliers, but yet those same people shop at Wal-Mart.

If you want higher wages, you will have higher prices.
