1944: (SHADA Reduces Employment from 90,000 to 4,000 — Two Months After Jeanne’s Observation SHADA Being Forced to Reduce Its Employment from Over 90,000 to 4,000, in Three Months’ Time Jeanne Being Unemployed and So Being Thousands of Peasant Farmers Many of Whom Had Been Displaced from Their Own Lands — the Massive Unemployment “Totally Eclipsing the Little Economic Revolution That Was Already Half Way Done,” the Failure Accelerating the Criticism Against Lescot and the Timeline Toward a Social Revolution): Two months after Jeanne’s observation, SHADA was forced to reduce its employment from over 90,000 to 4,000. In three months’ time, Jeanne was unemployed. And so were thousands of peasant farmers, many of whom had been displaced from their own lands for the advancement of the project. The massive unemployment of SHADA workers across the country totally eclipsed the little economic revolution that was already half way done. The failure and its poorly handled end also accelerated the criticism against Lescot and the timeline toward a social revolution — 86,000 jobs vanished in a single administrative decision, the human wreckage of a project that had promised prosperity and delivered dispossession.
