I'm still amused by calling what we have a labor "market". In markets I can clearly see the prices of things. I can, for example, tell you the price of corn in different locals because we have agricultural markets that post the prices clearly. Or in medicine I can tell you the price of an appendectomy at any facility that offers it. But an I tell you the cost of a php developer in jersey? No. The cost of an editor in Saskatoon? Niet. The cost of a hunting guide in Fairbanks? Eh ... Kinda. But only with a lot of footwork and no simple place where they are all listed do I can compare. If pay data were collected and published sortable be region and industry we'd start to have something resembling a market. Oh and we already have the data. The works been done. The IRS has a treasure trove of pay data. Just need to anonymize it and release the aggregate and you have a real glass door. Or don't annonymize it and you have disclosure.
