Wait, no, that didn't happen. Because no one is free to work where they want for a compensation package they like. In reality, people take what they can get because having a really shitty job that you hate pays the bills the same way that a great one does.
Classic defeatist, liberal attitude. People choose to take what they can get based on their own choices. They choose to not go to college. They choose to knock up some skanks from the local bar and have to pay child support. Ect...
