LETTER: Why aren’t the unemployed filling the available job vacancies?
Every day in the papers and on the news we see and hear employers saying they are having problems hiring employees — even when they use hiring incentives — to fully run their businesses. Even the higher price of gasoline is partially blamed on not enough truck drivers.
Meanwhile, taxpayers are paying billions in aid — some well deserved, some not — and landlords have been unable to evict tenants for non-payment of rent while their mortgage payments continue. Yet the ads for employees are still happening. What am I missing?
