if they fire 1/3 of their workers and the current workers work 1/3 harder, output will be at 89%. They need to work 50% harder to offset the 1/3 gone. This is why Indians are going to take all of our jobs! Christ Im drunk and that stuck out like some kind of new math.


Also, lets not forget the birth death adjustment makes the real jobs created severely negative when reversed out. What a joke!

Yep, nothing but census workers, since Obama took office even.
Nice to see the usual standards for research and objectivity around here.

Quote from hippie:

Many workers already work over time w/o over time pay. Unless there is a law against not paying over-time to non-exec workers making under 100k ( or any chosen salary), such a plan will not work.

If a person is required to work the extra hours, then the employers (not the worker) should be the one to pay the overhead taxes for not hiring extra help.

Instead of being less productive at time, it would be better if everyone gets more time off to be with family and friends, or just read or enjoy the beach.

be a trader and have all the time off u want.

what a joke your remarks are. europe follows your position and the unemployment rate has been higher than the US for years.

I worked on a 1099 basis most of time, soI got paid for all my work - except in a case when the company went completely out of business!
