This is a problem that permeates the core fiber of business in America. I don't know what's in the water in these business schools, but as long as these dimwits at the top are rewarded with golden parachutes for running a business into the ground, it won't change. All these people know is cut expenses to boost profits. This is a short term fallacy for the sake of dressing up the balance sheet. They cut expenses until there is no value left in their product or service. It hurts the working population and the country as a whole. It's not business, it's anti-business (or madness).
