flu – there will be people cleaning up the mess, as you say, replacing the 411k census workers. BUT, you have to factor in all the empty hotels, the tourism industry (hotels, restaurantes) the new layoffs, the fishermen not working, those not working won’t pay for their boats, banks lose money, etc. etc. The impact is, imo, greater than replacing census workers. But I’m not against the conspiracy theory. We should evaluate this further 😉
