The basic problem is a country wide labor shortage.

There is no such thing. There are only wage shortages.

I think you may be preaching to the wrong choir here.

Everyone has help needed signs up and I've seen almost double the salary offered from 2 years ago for low skill warehouse and forklift jobs. You can not find people to fill them. In the field I just retired from, you have to acquire a state license even for low end employees and what applicants you do get either can't even pass that license requirement or the required drug testing.

We all ready pay a starting wage of $15.00 and hour plus a top end full benefit plan, 401k and annual bonuses. In addition there is the option to work 10-20 hours of over time a week. We are in the top end employer for our area where the average wage is $11.50 an hour

So rather then mindless cling to your ignorance base dogmas pry open your welded shut mind, and try just this ONE time, to learn something about how the world really works.

This is a universal problem for US employers because of the stupid polices of the US Federal Government in response to Covid. The mindless sloganeering by the Freeper Know Nothings is just an example of living in denial
