Reminds me of that famous Marion Berry quote, "If you take out the killings, Washington [DC] actually has a very very low crime rate."
Maybe its criminals being killed?!

Over the long term, this is necessary but not sufficient to build a business line that makes sense. You also have to control all the other costs... which can be difficult if your business model requires large scale growth.
