1) Investors might earn too much return on their investment and wage inequality is high.
2) This study ignores downstream effects that result from the lower returns for ongoing/new investment. Since they’re now paying more for labor and selling less, new investment and upkeep has a lower return. Less store upgrades less new restaurants less expansion and so on. In the short term though, of course wage growth (inflation) feels good.
