+762 I found the cure to unemployment. Get rid of mannequins and have people stand there instead, amirite?

no, because then all the people whose job it is to make mannequins would no longer have a job

Except that then you'd have to pay people for what you otherwise wouldn't have to regularly pay for.

I went into Sephora awhile ago and they had real people for mannequins. It was pretty creepy cause they would just watch you walk around.

This could work, all though most of the people without jobs wouldn't look good in the clothes.

They did this at a store at the mall near where I live. There were girls in prom dresses standing in the windows, and they weren't allowed to move. Sounds like an awful job, actually.

Great idea, but the problem is that business do not exist only to create jobs. In a capitalistic society, businesses exist for the sake of making a profit. The smallest amount of people hired to make/sell the largest amount of product

ha! well they had nothing else to do I guess.

Obviously, it's a joke. If that was a way, you wouldn't think they would have done that already. We're not like super geniuses here. They would have thought of that. No need to come here and explain why you can't.

They do that at a store in my mall, they have 3 girls standing in the windows with their prom dresses on. Its so weird, they have to keep a straight face and everyone keeps making faces at them! I couldn't do that without laughing :)
