Hey everyone, happy Black Friday, I'll keep this brief in case you're getting this alert in the middle of fighting someone in a Walmart for 12% off a countertop ice maker. Your early access to this weekend's video is here, enjoy!
Every day there's another news story about a business that is struggling to find workers... from local restaurants and small businesses to International fast food chains and mega-corporations. Well, leave it to your ol' pal Buckley to find a solution! First we look at some of the theories from both "sides" (why are there "sides" for this?) about why there's a labor shortage in the first place, then Buckley provides a couple ideas for getting people to come back to work.

Your Kennedy started to sound like Iggy azalea at the end. Good call on the overall tone these Karen's have towards jobs they wouldn't work because it's beneath them.

♥ capitalism too - if its both ways. What we lived in the last decades I'd rather call capitaslavery.

Yeah, I agree with you. What they doing is basically how communist/socialism works but instead of for government, they do it for multi-million dollars enterprises which already rich and can survived on their own without those conntribiutions at all.

lol...screw the country. I'll make my own fries. And TBH, we could do with fewer Subways. There are so many other much better sub places.

Imagine how fucked your worldview has to be that you think sacrificing your time, not to help the homeless or sick kids or something like that, but to help a faceless multibillion dollar corporation keep making profits for their shareholders is a noble cause.
All of these issues stem from the government inflating the currency through deficit spending. Inflation at its most base is more dollars chasing fewer goods. Any time the government pumps it takes a couple years for the economy to reach equilibrium. Fast food workers will always be valued for the service they provide in relation to every other good and service available in the economy. Value is determined by the market, i.e. the consumers engaging in numerous consensual transactions where they trade the fruits of the their labor for that of others. There are plenty of low skill jobs that pay better than the food industry because the working conditions suck. Throwing sod, mixing mortar and carrying bricks to a mason, manual labor on a road crew and so on.

I can't speak for every city in the US, but here in Austin, TX, I haven't seen any help wanted sign that paid less than $11 an hour now (that $11 was a McDonald's). In fact, most seems to hover around $14 to 15 an hour for fast food restaurants. Granted, Austin isn't the cheapest place to live, but I would hope that this is the beginning of corporation's wake up call to start paying people good wages. Love the video!
