The government has not been paying software engineer salaries in any sense. This is in regards to profit calculation where business typically pays taxes on profits, so a zero profit company whose largest expense is developers gets a "fuck you, go out of business now" tax bill.
Companies have been getting a handout and are now losing it. I'm not gonna cry.
Companies have not been getting a hand out. Taxes are always paid on profits and not revenue.
