Yeah, not sure why you would equate those two. Providing a former spouse with alimony money is not generosity. Neither is providing a former employee with severance money generosity. In both cases, the ethics are incredibly obvious. The fact that alimony is required and severance is not is simply a matter of a corrupt (US) political system. This system leaves it to individual CEOs to act ethically (or not) and the public to judge them. We can improve the ethics of tech companies by holding them to account for how they behave. One way to do that is judging their behavior during layoffs.
