We have very good labor laws much to the disgust of free market, libertarian and pro-business political factions, yes but it NEVER them or management who is fired so they can shove their philosophies. There is a legal process when you need to reduce staff - the bare minimum offer is one week of pay for each year of service - got laid off after 19 years and company expedited the legal process if I volunteered for layoff by offer an extra half a week. It allowed me to pay of my house, my car, short term debt and not worry for income for an entire year.
