Angry employers fired back at President Biden for telling a restaurant owner Wednesday night at a CNN townhall that he should raise wages to address the labor shortage.
Biden seemed to acknowledge the impact of federal unemployment benefits on the shortage, but he told the restaurant owner, John Lanni, that people aren't working in restaurants because they're considering "other opportunities" for employment.
Restaurant owners on Thursday didn't like Biden's reponse, contending it showed how little he understands about running a business and the country's labor crisis, DailyMail.com reported.
Twenty-six states have ended the federal benefits and already have seen a rise in employment. But more than 12 million people are claiming unemployment across the nation compared to 5.8 million in 2019.

Ignorant remarks coming from a braindead moron who never did an honest days work in his life
Biden is one of those idiots that believe a business owners only biggest worry is “ What am I going to do with all this money I make”.
Hey! Stupid! If you want to increase the supply of labor, try ending special unemployment benefits and cash payments. All you’re doing is pushing the cost of such BS onto our children. Time for the Participation Trophy crowd to crawl out of their parents’ basement and start working for a living.
Butt, butt, butt pedo joe said he saw no evidence that generous unemployment benefits was an issue............. SMDH!
wasn’t Biden the one who advised a group being laid off to just learn code? the last Dem to understand Econ was Bill Clinton.
He’s right, but first you have to remove the excessive taxes, regulation, and lawlessness, and enforce legitimate contracts. Then the free market can operate and prices/wages will self regulate.
He’s not going to do any of that.
Apparently now some coders are going to have to learn how to mine coal. Who saw that coming?

Biden is out of touch with reality.
The only thing BJ understood was gravity.
What goes up must come…
Is that video doctored?
What a maroon!
contending it showed how little he understands about running a business
Just imagine, if we had a president who had run businesses, who understood how to run a business, who understood how the economy functions. Any chance such an individual could become president????
I’m sure Biden hasn’t said anything on his own for at least a year - but wages are too low and need to rise to meet the market.
Labor has not had an inflation-adjusted wage since the1970s and that has caused many avoidable problems.
People who want to dine out need to pay the workers what the market requires. That’s all there is to it.
Nope not doctored
Man on the man and aliens LOL
I’m surprised he didn’t tell he father to send his son to art school.
This is what the media was peddling.
This is the view from the back of the auditorium.

Nope. Saw some clips at other locations. Yeah, pretty much in decline as far as cognitive abilities. RAPID decline.

you are leaving out the artificial wages uncle sam is paying.
when there are jobs available there is NO reason to pay people not to work.
