It's hundreds of people losing their jobs at once. It doesn't matter what the relative magnitude, it's still hundreds of families dealing with the sudden loss of a job.
They are all ridiculously well-paid, unless they've been terribly mismanaging their finances I'm sure they can deal with it.
I will spare my sympathy for those in minimum wage jobs who are suddenly fired and struggling to make ends meet. They are the real victims of our economy.
You don't know them. How many are supporting disabled loved ones via healthcare? How many are disabled themselves? 1 in 4 people live with a disability. A massive loss of jobs is a problem because benefits are tied to jobs.
