Wow, 1 economist back in 1891 considered it a fallacy. You know, before the advent of modern quantitative economics as a science and all the labor econ research that's been done since then.
Now it has a wiki article that's missing citations in the most important key points.
Thanks for changing my viewpoint!

Sure, all you need to do is retrain warehouse workers as nurses. Any progress there?
