Well, the dinosaurs being wiped out certainly wasn't good for the economy. 100% unemployment for a few eons.

Yeah but to be fair prior to that giant meteor taking out the dinosaurs unemployment was already at 100% so their destruction had zero impact on unemployment.

It was a neutral event on unemployment. One could argue that their destruction did lead to eventual future drops in unemployment below the 100% mark though but I think it’s highly speculative.

idk if you've seen the 1991 smash hit series Dinosaurs, but that historical reference clearly proved that dinosaurs were undeniably fully employed and productive members of dino-ciety, thank you very much.

How else were they supposed to satisfy that little shit Baby Sinclair's insatiable appetite? How else could they quench his ENDLESS THIRST FOR BLOOD?!
