If you have 100,000 employees and you can save $1000 per year on each employee (that's about $0.50 an hour) by giving the job to someone else, then you just earned your $100,000,000 salary for the year!

Just remember that it's the politics of this great land that is causing it's death.
I don't fault the companies for using the politics to their advantage.
