A new theory for why Americans can’t get a raise.

'Those numbers are based on the findings of a new research paper that may help unlock the mystery of why Americans can’t seem to get a decent raise. '

'But studying monopsony has traditionally been tricky for economists, because they lacked good data that would let them analyze broad trends specifically in labor market concentration. '

'A lack of competition among employers gives businesses outsize power over workers, including the ability to tamp down on pay. '

' And workers can’t ask for fair pay if there aren’t enough businesses out there competing to hire. '

'But a recent study by a group of labor economists introduces an interesting theory into the mix: Workers’ pay may be lagging because the U.S. is suffering from a shortage of employers. '
