Not only that, but from the company's perspective, its just the right thing to do. Starting off with "we put the expense on you just because we can" doesn't really set the tone very well especially for a company that, despite being a legacy, still puts itself out there as a close knit family, etc. and all that jazz.

Losing billions and trying to survive? Okay, fair enough, I guess. Making billions and projected to continue? Its time to do the right thing, its as simple as that. WWCEWD?
