What about the millions of customers. Prices all go up then. Sort of goes against the bussiness priorities, most produce for lowest cost.

- acdha 3y agoThat doesn’t matter to them anywhere near as much as losing a job does to the people who were laid off, and it’s certainly not the case that prices won’t go up anyway.
- wegfawefgawefg 3y agoIm not talking about the consequences of the layoffs for those who are fired. We agree on that front entirely. But i'm pointing out that if all the agents in a market acted against the interest of the relationship between the bussiness and the customers, we would have much bigger issues than just layoffs. Everything would be unnecessarily expensive all the time, insufficient volumes and supply. Development would be slower. The companies trying to minimize costs and maximize trade between them and the customers is not just caused by greed, or resulting in suffering, these are the basic drives behind the survival of modern life as we know it.
