Jon’s story on exporting jobs points out that

The government can set a limit on how low an employer can go in seeking a seller of labor, but it cannot force the employer to buy. When the government-set price (the wage) is more than the employer wishes to spend, there is no job. It is not an unfilled job, it is not a job collecting dust on a shelf or being crated up, it does not wind up on an Island of Unfilled Jobs?…

Is there a connection with?this North Carolina agency?
