Lots of open job positions is very healthy for the economy, it gives the worker the ability to choose, and it makes companies have to compete. A ton of companies are literally being forced to increase their wages in order to get enough employees.

I'm not saying it's unhealthly I am just saying they don't help if they don't pay above the cost of living. Sure you can get a job paying 15 USD but that isn't even going to cover rent + utilities. So for now your stuck with your job and don't have the option to switch.
