yay more people unemployed, just what the USA needs. Oh well, economic disaster is imminent.


Are you suggesting that these people should remain employed for the sake of being employed? That mindset is what leads to the misallocation of resources, which is what will lead to any economic disaster.


you can shift devs to different projects that could use the assistance versus laying them off.


If those devs were requiring assistance, they'd be hiring, anyway. So whilst it's not the same people being employed, it would still have the same net effects on employment.
