"You're constantly going to have businesses come and go," he said. "You have to look at the net effect and our net effect is pretty positive."
Of course its going to be "pretty positive" if you just look at employment figures. People have to eat and they'll end up taking any old job to do so. Is that a positive that now we have a dozen greeters at Walmart all working under 40 hours a week? I don't think so.
