Low unemployment means there are plenty of jobs available. Those jobs are available because employers believe they can increase revenue by shelling out more money on headcount. So those employers believe there's still money to be made in the market.

That's an interesting take I'll have to give some more thought to. I don't think that it's clear that employers think the economy will grow in a way that yields more abundant and cheaper Goods. Maybe I'm Wrong and we'll see in GDP outpacing inflation from all of the new jobs. Maybe they just haven't had a chance to materialize in real GDP growth
