Supply and Demand

I just find it baffling that the same people who defend the supply and demand model for Capitalism don't support the situation going on right now with employee shortages. Employees are a supply and right now they are in high demand, so why aren't they worth more now then before. Remember when the roles where reversed? These same people where the loudest ones screaming about overprivileged “underlings” wanting more. That they should be grateful for the terrible jobs that they can get. Now that businesses are desperate for workers they are not willing to pay fair market value for them. Instead they blame it on these potential employees not wanting to work instead of them understanding their worth in the job market.
