You don't 'beg' for workers you offer more money to get workers. It's called supply and demand.

As usual central, you're completely wrong. There are literally thousands of unfilled entry level jobs open in Columbus right now and some of them, like what EC pointed out, are literally begging for people even with increased wages. Columbus is as close to full employment as I can ever remember it right now. It's more than just factory and entry-level jobs too.

Well Mike the wages aren't high enough are they? Do you even under stand supply and demand as an economic theory?

The price P of a product is determined by a balance between production at each price (supply S) and the desires of those with purchasing power at each price (demand D). The diagram shows a positive shift in demand from D1 to D2, resulting in an increase in price (P) and quantity sold (Q) of the product. In microeconomics, supply and demand is an economic model of price determination in a market. It postulates that, holding all else equal, in a competitive market, the unit price for a particular good, or other traded item such as labor or liquid financial assets, will vary until it settles at a point where the quantity demanded (at the current price) will equal the quantity supplied (at the current price), resulting in an economic equilibrium for price and quantity transacted. However, this model does not hold in cases with positive feedback which can lead to an economic bubble as in the housing market in the early 21st century that led to the subprime mortgage crisis.

Dollar Tree is building a million sq. foot DC closer to Washington CH because they can’t find workers in Groveport or Grove City.
