Episode description

William Spriggs, AFL-CIO Chief Economist, Howard University Professor, and former Assistant Secretary of Labor, disputes the phenomenon labeled the “Great Resignation,” and calls it more of a Great Job Mismatch as employees are leaving employers who raised minimum wages only because state laws forced them, and are seeking jobs where they are more valued by employers. He discusses the roots of inflation, high gas prices and the fight to unionize workers at corporations that are anti-union—like Starbucks. Also, he explains how influential SCOTUS is in employment cases, in arbitration and in upholding corporate power, as the confirmation hearings for Ketanji Brown Jackson commence.
