Eliminatation

Hey @ashleytien thanks for your question The stimulus tells us that companies report their jobs numbers to the federal government. Recently-fired employees starting their own businesses would not help resolve the discrepancy because those new companies would have to report tot he government just like everyone else, so those jobs would be accounted for. That's why we can eliminate C. On the other hand, if companies abruptly cease ALL operations, that also means they stop reporting to the government and all the jobs lost by the downfall of that company are not accounted for in the government's numbers
