No that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that demand (for a product or service) is what drives the amount of labor that is performed, not the other way around.

If a company has maxed out the amount of widgets the can sell in their market and adding new features will not change that, then adding more labor makes no sense.

It follows that making their existing labor more productive leads to layoffs.
