Jobs are a cost center. Companies don't create them on purpose anymore than having a higher electricity bill.

I have no idea why you would think that is an argument for anything.

It’s masterful moves like calling opinions you don’t agree with “strawmen” that make you such a persuasive debater. I’m out gunned and out maneuvered - you win. I was wrong to describe elon musk’s actions as irresponsible.
