Every time he has said that, things have gotten better from that point out.

The best thing to ever happen to these companies that are laying off 30 to 40% of their work force is the economic down turn. If you can lay off almost HALF your staff and continue to do business, you didn’t need them in the first place.

These companies will emerge from the depression leaner, better, and stronger. If they don’t emerge, all the better. Wheat from the chaff baby.

Embrace it, adversity brings opportunity.
