Schumpeter's Gale: The Upside of Layoffs

There have been so many layoffs over the past few weeks, and so much of the coverage has rightly focused on the downside for the people impacted. I wanted to write a more optimistic take.

I studied Joseph Schumpeter and the Mickey Mouse Club and came to the conclusion that being laid off could be the best thing to happen to many recently ex-employees of high-growth startups.

I would love to hear your thoughts, and if you know someone who would find an optimistic take on the situation helpful, share away.
