If you are having a hard time finding people to work now of all times then perhaps you pay more. Thats how income increase when companies increase wages. I know people want to get away with paying the lowest possible but that tactic doesnt seem to be working.
Did you miss the part where people are getting paid an extra $600 per week on top of their regular unemployment? Bartenders and servers in my area are getting paid the equivalent of roughly $23/hr to stay home. If they go to work, they lose money. That's the whole point of this article. There's incentive not to work even when it is available.
