There is no labor shortage; simply a shortage of people willing to work at what is offered, from a comp and working arrangement perspective.

The Federal government can retain workers when they allow them to remain remote/have flexible work.

Most times in history the real crash only happens a while after rate increases stop, sometimes only after the first reduction. Famous last words I guess.
