quote:I figured as much, and some skills are probably beyond some individual's capability. But people need to adapt to the market, not expect the government to adapt it for them (same argument for minimum wage increase).
Part of this in in addition to the "job skills gap", or whatever the experts are calling it these days. This is from Jacob Wolinsky, someone you might want to familiarize yourself with. He, and his newsletter, which is largely free, write some really interesting stuff.

Except I would favor an increase in minimum wage. Several caveats however. Exclude part time labor, exclude labor below age 18, and the increase should be to a level that the majority of employers are paying anyway.
Why would I favor the above? Give the other side something they really already have in order to get something ore important passed. Or in other words, the Donald Trump strategy. Something it seems few have figured out.
