I need someone to explain this to me. If a job is already unfilled and you just cut the position how is that making things better or worse? Logically it would have no impact right?

Because that job goes from temporarily vacant to permanently removed. At least when it’s temporarily vacant there’s an opportunity to fill it and get that work done. If the position is fully cut that isn’t happening.

In much the same way, when a wound is bleeding out, you don't put a bandage on it. After all, you've done just fine so far without a bandage - clearly you don't need it.

Correct, it’s fear mongering from the gothamist.
