The problem is real, but we will muddle on through. There are more jobs than applicants in almost all cases. It does get worse where more training is required.

Immigration would and does help. We need to accept more immigration when we need more workers and less immigration when we need less workers. It is kind of not right to steal doctors and nurses from other countries. We need to get professionals more help, like apprentices or assistants.
