I interpreted that as Imm correctly identifying my comment as a joke. Regardless of how sincere the original post was, my comment was very obviously (to me, at least) a swipe at the morally bankrupt world we inhabit and the fact that a company doing this of their own volition right now feels absurd - not a dig at the idea itself. To the original point - I tend to agree with people elsewhere in the thread saying this particular idea is infeasible and ignores the behind-the-scenes contributions of other staff. I am however very much in favour of the related concept of making employee ownership mandatory in certain situations (think anything on a major stock exchange). In that scenario, the cost savings would "trickle down" to all employees.
