The Black Death and labour scarcity
About this model
Statute of Labourers, 1348–1351. Plague kills a share of the workforce; scarce labourers bid wages up; a wage cap law holds wages down and labourers leave for towns. A teaching model: it keeps only this core loop and leaves out everything else a real economy has.
