And the reason why everything costs 30% more? The cost of running a business (labor, goods, transportation, etc.) has increased by that much and more.

Labor is just one aspect of running a business. For most industries it’s the #1 cost, so yes, an increase in labor cost + other increases mentioned above = 30% increase to your goods and services.

Wtf is that logic. Your idea of an economy is that businesses always need to raise the prices by (e+x)% if an employee get's a e% raise? Then how can anyone buy anything in 50+ years?
