Was there something to suggest it was? Getting workers back working isn't for the benefit of workers.
- nine_k 2y agoHow about letting them earn wages which they otherwise would not?
- randomdata 2y agoA wage is debt, so not beneficial in and of itself. It can be beneficial when you call the debt and turn it into something tangible (e.g. food), of course, but that is also of benefit to the business who derives joy in giving you that food. It is not for the benefit of workers. It is for the benefit of everyone.
