I'm not an economist in any sense of the word so this might actually be a dumb fucking idea but why not give businesses an incentive to pay their employees more, to a degree. Obviously not to an absurd amount but say you give your an employees a 2.5% pay increase and in return be granted a 5% tax credit. Netting the business 2.5% in return? I don't know maybe this is a terrible idea but just a shower thought.
