Raise your fucking minimum wage, encourage the growth of unions, make healthcare a right, and your local burgerteria will have no trouble finding employees.

sweetheart it's not about starvation wages... currently there is a 300 covid bonus to unemployment to which most people average about 500 a week on unemployment. if two married adults both collect that is a total of 1600 a week times 52 weeks in a year that's 83,200 per year to sit on your ass and do nothing. 1600 a week divided by 40 hours is 40 dollars an hour. divide that by two people it still 20+ dollars an hour. tell me you are willing to pay a 20.00 sur charge to have your pizza delivered. or pay an extra 20 buck to the next sit down meal you are served. or a 20$ service allotment for each movie ticket you buy... and 20 bucks is for the jobs no one is meant to make a career out of... how much more is a mechanic worth. what about an AC guy in the heat of summer or a boiler guy in the dead of winter? how much is it worth to you to ensure your airline pilot is not the same 20$ an hour guy who gets your starbucks wrong every time?
what the government is paying them to stay home far exceeds the 15$ per hour even they are asking for. this is an engineered attempt to crash the economy and middle class.
