@Amoshias@esq.social hm? The time bomb aspect is that the tax bill was passed in 2017 **to take effect in** 2023. Which lines up with the https://layoffs.fyi/ graph: rare layoffs from 2020-2022, then some layoffs from Q2-2022, building up to a spike in Q1-2023, followed by continuous quarterly layoffs affecting huge numbers of workers.

@j4ck@iosdev.space ahh, thank you. that's what I was missing. I thought it was saying that somehow the amortization itself was creating some type of delayed tax consequence which was leading to increasing layoffs.
