>This world view seems like a potential death spiral.

It's not a death spiral, it's competition.

When people leave shitty jobs and vacancies can't get filled, businesses either improve conditions and pay or they lose to competitors who do.

The only way you can really negotiate is being ready to say no and leave when you get a bad offer. People actually doing that make a difference.

Suddenly a job has to be better than "fuck it" and people are making "fuck it" seem glamorous.

You'll get a lot of business people whining and whinging about it, but only actions actually matter.
