Massive resources are being used to build things in a useless attempt to get rid of workers

All those resources never showed up to help research teams finding a cure to cancer.

    A reduction in profits is not an issue to the production itself... I would understand if it were a 10% reduction in revenue. Nobody needs to be fired, profits are still above 0, the company is sustainable

    If it was were public I'd understand that.

    But if it's private, you're basically increasing demand on the service by artificially lowering the price, without addressing potential overcharges... I guess it's still OK because you reduce traffic and end up saving elsewhere, and you can bargain the price collectively. Still I would prefer that bargaining to happen before the measure is put in place and you start giving away public money to a private company
