Good point that Denmark isn't the US. I also was thinking from a US point of view. I don't know what the rules are in Denmark. That said, Maersk is very international. Unless their layoffs were all in Denmark, they won't all be covered by the same set of rules.

Your long paragraph: Well, yeah, you and me both. And well said.

But on your last paragraph, I probably agree with you more than you expect. The public has a definite interest in such things.

Where we differ (and it seems like a small difference, at least to me) is that I see nothing wrong with hiring people for the duration of a temporary increase in demand, as long as they know up front that that's the deal. For those willing to take that deal, and companies willing to give it, I see no need for the government to prevent it.

Honestly, last paragraph, I was assuming you agreed with me in general, just wanted to note that even if you didn't there was little point in expanding.
