In 14/15th century after Black Plague, so many people died that it was impossible to find working force. At the time "wages" were not following inflation, so people were usually slaving for food. As many relatives died, people inherited homes and land of their cousins. Suddenly, no one wanted to be a servant anymore and work for the lords.
Only way to attract working force was to triple or quadruple usual rates. I live in UK, and current inflation of ~10-15% will quickly eat all your savings, house/flat prices almost doubled. Just in 2 years what was 200K now is 350K, what was 400K is 700K.
Meaning all you worked for years will be diminished in just couple. Wages are not following inflation since 1970, while profits of shareholders have skyrocketed. So, when I read "No one wants to work", I read it as: - "No, one wants to work, for the money I would like to pay them", > What is the level of skills and amount of money you are willing to pay? - Highest level of skill, and if possible I would like to pay nothing. |
