Re: “Revenue models may not support [a high] wage payout.”
Agree.
But just say that, and nothing else.
Instead, businesses have begun asking taxpayers to train their workers, and they ask government to increase the supply of cheap labor.
If you can’t afford the labor, close your business, or start a new business.
What are you smoking?
First, businesses ARE taxpayers. Most are big time taxpayers.
Second, they wouldn't ask government to train their workers - - most "labor" is on-the-job training anyway. Government "job training" programs are a political pander to help politicians look like they care about the unemployed. The politicians LOVE government "job training" programs.
