yeah, but someone (Julie Schor) has done that. Clearly, it's not an
accurate estimate. All that matters for my purposes (and for those of
most others) is that the C-O-J-L measure gives a general idea of how
the true cost of job loss (measured in as consistent a way as
possible) has changed over time. Has it increased over the decades?
(I'd guess so, but I don't know.)
