> comical assumption they are scrooge mcducks sitting on piles of cash

Strawmanning my arguments with insulting remarks does not change the reality of income and wealth inequality in the US.

> You assume every business is a FAANG and sitting on piles of cash

I never said that. The article is about labor shortage in general, not in tech only.

Big players drive market salaries. That includes baristas at starbucks, truck drivers and so on. This is a well known fact.

You can also look at how many restaurant/cafe' owners complain that they cannot hire employees at wages that would require the employee to work 40 hours a week only to pay for rent.

I wonder if you have an axe to grind here.

Ah, there you go.
