|content=Let’s stop this “labor shortage” dead in its tracks. Let’s not print visas. It’s time to recognize workers are suffering from a *share shortage*. We need to print shares not visas and add them to compensation packages.
 
Bingo! Look at that: totally fictitious  problem solved. 🙏

|content=I feel gaslit when grown-ups talk about labor shortages in market economies w wage mechanisms.

|content=You see, longterm labor shortages don’t exist in large market economies.
 
But the news media counts on workers being too dumb to understand the wage mechanism. So everyone in media pretends to believe in labor shortages. Like they were jackalopes.
 
Let’s print shares & not visas. https://t.co/1BamM9kNEo

|content=Let’s talk about “equities shortages” which are no more real than “labor shortages”. That way every S.O.B. who whines about a labor shortage will hear: “Oh. It’s because of the Stock Share Shortage. You just have to print new shares of your company to get your workers energized.”
