This is the first I’ve heard of this “plan”, but I can believe it. The “bean counters” run the company and they are not known for looking into the future very far.

The end result will be another U.S. company destroyed as they get rid of the “Dead Wood” also known as older employees with all of the experience necessary to keep things running smoothly.

The problem seems to be intrinsic to large, public companies. CEO's have little incentive to look further than the next quarterly report. They therefore focus on what will deliver short-term profits, and ignore the fact that they are bleeding institutional knowledge and trade secrets.
