I did not say there will be more people involved, there might be more or there might be less or there might be exactly the same amount. what I was saying was that the only thing unreasonable is that there will be 0 people involved (i.e. there are 1.4M people now and afterwards there will be 0 so there will be 1.4M jobs lost)
I don't remember writing that all 1.4 million would be out of work.
Best case, most of those who might lose their job have some additional marketable job skills because I'm not sure we need that much help in admin. If they're actually willing to do something else, great. If they aren't, we'll have more people collecting some kind of assistance.
Whatever they (Congress) do, I expect it to come with lots of bickering, debate and for about half of the public will hate it, some won't like it but they'll accept it, and some will be absolutely delighted because the rich have to pay more because they hate people who have more.
If AOC gets her way, I may have to leave the country.
