Also how much productivity on a permantly decreased head count would we be conceding?

A further concern with LGBP is it would incentify WB outsourcing. Some might say who cares so long as we get paid what a WB does which is questionable to begin with, but as soon as we become domestic feed for outsourced international on the top and jumbo shrimp RJ's on the bottom we could be facilitating
serious staffing surpluses.

It's not just pay, but also growth and the ability to upgrade. LGBP is fine as long as I've got mine and don't think I'm going any further.
