Wow, a thousand a day? Is that full wages, or does it include benefits? Even if it did include benefits, $1,000/day all-in is not exactly chump change. Universal income would not pay them $1,000/day.

That should be full costs, probably paid to a subcontracting company.

Are you implying that it wasn’t going to a worker, that it was just fraud?

[user5994461]

I'm implying that workers are often employed temporarily though a subcontracting agency, rather than being in a permanent role. The daily costs is fully inclusive.

Both companies should keep track of what resources are assigned where and paid for.

Which makes sense, but if true, quote in OP article would be vastly inaccurate and changes everything.
