Well, we have one poster saying he offers $30/hr and can’t get workers.

What say you to that? Pay $40?

Do you really not understand the difference between firms voluntarily choosing to raise prices in order to attract superior labor and the government imposing arbitrary price controls in order to buy votes? Get out of here with that false equivalency nonsense.

Ok, Milton Friedman, we get it. There’s the classroom and there’s real life.

From my experience, the majority of the jobs available don't have anyone qualified to do them and employers are unwilling to train. Also employers' standards are unreasonably high, probably because they don't want to fill those positions in the first place. Its cheaper to pay the few workers you have a little overtime than it is to hire new employees.

Agreed.

End welfare. Tons of leeches are on "disability". Make their asses starve and they'll get out there and work hard.

You can work for me 15.00 an hour with ZERO training, nada, just show up, be nice, and work a little. we can teach you all you need in three weeks.

I get it, it isn't a ton of money, but I also give a phone allowance, bonuses, you can make an extra 3-4k a year in extra cash.

I have hell finding even one decent employee per search.

Construction entry level laborer wages are now at 16.00 a hour. This has nothing to do with wages. It has everything to do with culture. We are all wasting money on useless employees. If this keeps up, we will find coyotes to man the staff.

That border will never close.

Both talk alot of bullshite but the fact of the matter is liberals want the votes and conservatives want the cheap labor.

Increase your pay scale and the problem will be resolved.

There are plenty of Americans that will bust their arse and do a great job, they just are not going to do it for shite money.

We dont need immigrants that are spoiled and lazy. Government cash instantly makes their lives better with no work, and previous administrations have advertised this.

We have to wise the frick up on teaching our kids. They have to be self reliant. I do see that with young college kids though. They give me hope. Upperclassmen and graduates are the soft, weak, unemployable bitches.

We hire gang members

It’s been great.

I don’t think I’ve seen a bad review come across my desk from my supervisors.

Come to think of it, I haven’t seen a couple of my supervisors since the last bad reviews they gave one of the newly hired gang member.
