Fraud, data collection, and to trick investors Covid 19 loans didn’t have to be paid back if your business was still understaffed/“didn’t fully recover”, plus tax deductions Investors will be willing to give you more if you’re showing them “growth” (like “hey look we added 19 jobs to the company this quarter! Look how good we’re doing! Give us more money!)

Damnn, thanks for the info! Thats the kind of fraud that is so annoying because it seems it would be so easy to prevent with some kind of legislation

It doesn’t really need prevention, bc it’s literal fraud. It’s a crime. All it needs is to be punished. But we all know that will never fucking happen

I mean, how do you prevent this specific type of fraud without just getting rid of the protections for those who need it?

I mean I don’t know a ton about this but I was thinking it would be pretty easy to hold companies that exaggerate their company’s growth for money accountable

Well yeah, you just charge them with fraud. The only prevention is actually making them fear the punishment. Doesn’t even matter what it is, if they know they’ll actually get caught they’ll be less likely to do it. Ofc I say hit em where it hurts and make it financially disastrous for them

i feel like it would be fairly easy to just look at the number of jobs posted vs the number of new employees hired to prevent this specific fraud, if they posted 30 job listings and hired no one it’d be pretty suspicious
