Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story:
The arrival of the novel coronavirus and subsequent shutdowns of economies across the globe have caused hardships not seen in generations. But for business professors, it's also a once-in-a-generation research opportunity.
USC Marshall Assistant Professor of Marketing and Kenneth King Stonier Assistant Professor of Business Administration Davide Proserpio was one of the first academics to study the sharing economy as he completed his Ph.D. Today he is considered a leading expert in the so-called "gig" economy. We asked him five questions about how the COVID-19 pandemic and resultant shutdown are affecting the sector.

Maybe the presence of other things would be more helpful?
Or the absence of some other things that drove to a fuck all job?
Because the possibilities as so many more than just two.

Like what? Policies that make the problem worse?

That too.
Or fucking tuition fees going through the roof (while most of the damn'd Europeans have even tertiary education socialized).
Or being held hostage by John Deere with the crop you can't harvest because you can't repair your tractor.
Or those HB whatever visas.
Things like that, yes.

Seems irrelevant to me. Most people don't actually pay those fees (because they don't go to those schools) and they still have the same problems.
I sense we're reaching.
Ditto.
