> Companies hire people to make money, not as an act of social conformance.

I think you also underestimate how much hiring gives these large companies political leverage. A town can be completely destroyed when one of these companies threatens to move a factory or office





Right - true.

So hiring people is ditching this political leverage. If that was the original driver, what's changes to make it not worth it anymore?


how does that relate to the comment you're replying to?

as a response to "Companies hire people to make money, not as an act of social conformance.". I've edited the comment to make it clear, thanks
