Connection thesis
Labor cost inflation is now structural across geographies. Germany's carmakers painting bleak jobs outlook + Japan schools abandoning charter buses due to rising transport costs = wage/labor pressures systematically compressing margins in capital-intensive sectors. This mirrors the United Airlines precedent (31% flight attendant raises locked in permanently). The pattern is: once one major employer capitulates, cost floors rise sector-wide, forcing downstream price increases or service cuts.
