>Whenever I see these posts I immediate translate them in my head to "we're in the middle of a talent shortage at a price I am willing to pay."

That's true for just about anything.

"there is no epipen crisis, only a crisis at what you are willing to pay"

"There is no poverty , only poverty at a given income level"

*"there is no crime problem, only crime problem at a given crime level"

what you are saying is self-contradictory. If you (or others) are able to turn down 150K offers...you know what you are.

You must admit that the price of epipens is an artificially inflated one only possible due to government imposed monopoly, not one driving by true market forces.

Poverty is simply a description wealth and is always comparative. We can define poverty as any level we so desire.

One might argue that any crime is a problem, as long as it causes an issue for society or victims.
