Corporations seem to be desperately trying to create more jobs at the moment. TypeScript, by being less efficient and adding complexity, allows massive job creation to take place.

It's all about job creation so that companies can justify receiving more, bigger government contracts and loans on favorable terms from banks and they get more political influence by coercing their employees into voting for specific candidates (more headcount = more voting power).
