A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That is a bunch of assumptions right there.
The reality is that businesses often don't know when more people are needed, don't have the correct people making the decisions whether to hire even if needed, can't get the budgets approved even if the hiring mgmt chain is on board, can't get approval to offer competitive salaries, etc etc.
There are a million reasons why companies don't hire when they need to, or do hire when they don't.
Humans aren't perfectly rational, and can't create perfectly rational systems.
You had me, until the second-half of your last sentence. Its more like we can't rely on perfectly rational systems, because we don't comply, neither perfectly nor rationally.
We can't create them either. Think of any system you think is perfectly rational, and then ask yourself by what standard its rationality is determined.
