Running the numbers, we have 18,000 employees at say $14 per hour asked to give pay concessions on the order of 10% in pay, and 20% in medical and pension benefits, while the senior management increases their own pay by 90-200%. This fits the small business failures that I have seen in the past 10 years locally. Every single one had the people at the top pulling out too much money, or selling out to someone who couldn't figure out that paying back loans meant that the profit margin goes down.
