Most of those ppl cannot leave due to various obligations.

If you want to see an indocator of terrible compensation - check why pretty much noone (at least here) wants to be a nurse.

Profession is rapidly aging because new ppl are not joining. And they are not joining because work is hard and pay is terrible.

The whole Healthcare system if we dont get robots in place fast is going to crumble soon like a house of cards.

The US has lots of people interested in nursing and not enough infrastructure to turn them into nurses:

The work is hard, but the pay is well above many other jobs and there are jobs everywhere.
