Supply and demand based on a competitive market usually balances things out. Course we know how this will work, cost will be passed on, jobs/wages will be cut. Many of us are in such markets that don't allow the passing of cost to customers, so I suspect employers will pass the added cost on to the employee, etc. For us, we'll be cutting bonuses and wage increases. Like you said, until it works out, employers will be wary, may take several years until supply and demand takes effect.
