From the point of view of a disgruntled small business owner who is having difficulty hiring new employees, what would you say is wrong with people in today's world, specifically with the potential labor market in the U.S. during the time of COVID?

I think the problem isn't with people in general, but with society's current attitude toward self-isolation, combined with the pandemic's complicated impacts on the labor market. There simply aren't enough people in the job market right now, so it can be difficult to find skilled employees that won't introduce potential health risks into our workplace. It can be frustrating, because it seems that many people have forgotten the importance of protecting themselves and their loved ones in these tumultuous times. It can be tough to remain hopeful when the prospects of finding and hiring new employees seem daunting and uncertain.
