I hear that the Washington Post just fired 1/3 of all of it's reporters.

Otherwise, if so many jobs have disappeared, does that mean that my garbage company no longer needs to employ a staf on every truck to drive it and empty my trash recepticle into the truck?



Is that an argument of some sort? I can't quite identify the point.


I feel the same way about the article


No, but the garbage will need fewer pickups if consumption drops. Fewer pickups means fewer trucks means free drivers.

Do… do you not want them to do this?
