$1.4 billion for 8,000 jobs. That’s $175,000 per job. So to be quite cold, no, they’re not worth it. Unemployment rates are conservatively estimated to reach at least 10%, or around 800,000 workers. Virgin employees are a drop in the ocean compared to the economic effects of this virus.

10 years of mismanagement are the reason they’re going bust, not the govt.
