MSNBC's Ruhle ripped for scolding businesses to raise wages after poor jobs report: 'Never run a business'
Fox News
MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle was slammed Monday for her take on how government unemployment benefits are affecting the U.S. labor force, arguing that the real question is why aren't employers offering workers higher wages.
"Why is it - that the unemployment benefits are too generous rather than the pay offered by employers too low?" Ruhle asked Sunday. "Pay more $ = find more workers [sic] If margins are so thin, that you cannot increase pay without passing it through/losing customers = your biz model doesn’t work." She followed up, "Remember, over the last year Amazon & other major retailers hired HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people to work in warehouses/disty centers. Many of those jobs pay $16+hr, healthcare & offer steady schedule. A lot of folks left the service industry & aren’t coming back."More Related News
