Of course not saving jobs = more people on benefits, free houses and all the glitzy stuff that immigrants flee war torn countries come over for. It’s not a zero sum game to the public purse.
The economy tanks either way. Plugging the gap temporarily, for industries that are sustainable in normal times, would be better in the long run than mass unemployment and a longer lasting recession.
