"Kansas economic planners also expected decreased unemployment, but that did not materialize, for a different reason. Unemployment, in the long run, is not caused by lack of economic growth or of work available for unemployed workers to perform; it is instead caused by artificially high wage rates at the low end of the wage spectrum (i.e., minimum wage, union legislation, etc.)."
