I don't want to get into the argument over minimum wage or taxing the rich. There is something that is known to create high paying jobs. Before I get too far please allow me to confess this is not easy and I'm only bringing up a part of the solution not solving the entire thing.
As a small business operator I have lived through many recessions and a couple boom times. During the boom times as a business operator I had to offer a higher wage in order to get people to accept the job. At the time this was good business because everyone was spending money and business was booming everywhere. During times like this the classes do not fight about wages because the free market kicked in and the short supply of employees to fill jobs caused those looking for a job to be desired by the market. When multiple companies desire the same thing what happens? The object that is desired benefits.
Currently we are in a market where the companies don't desire more workers and more potential workers desire a job. Now we have flip flopped and the desire to work is creating an environment where the worker to be more desirable to the company will take less.
We have to create more jobs in America of all types to fix this. We need to make companies compete for employees again at every level not just the highest paid.
How do we do this? Well that is another story, however one step we can all take is to buy Made in the USA products. Keep our money at home and keep our jobs at home. This keep money here to pay taxes and build infrastructure.
