when there is a layoff (firing is the term partisan and union members prefer)
to keep the business entity profitable and solvent....if the layoff is 5-10%....the only clamoring that ever gets any air time is the brutal company "firing" etc/yak/yak/yak.

There is never a mention of the usual 90-95% that are still employed....that are able to be kept employed because of the actions taken.
And if the management was smart when they developed the lay off list they got rid of the dead wood and those who never added value in the first place.

Just like the lame Bain bashing....the partisan patter is to focus on those let go....not the ones remaining (usually in excess of 90%)....and certainly not going to report the ones that grew employment after the repair of the company.

Just another partisan distraction away from REAL ISSUES.
