Here's a reprint of an old WSJ article from the "Neutron Jack" era:

> EVERYONE FIRED

> Wall Street Reacts Favorably

Michael Moore used it as the introduction to his '90s-era book "Downsize This!".

Welch is quoted in the article:

> Jack Welch, chairman of General Electric, had more concrete advice for the downsized workers.

> "We've got 40 openings at our Tijuana facility right now," beamed a jubilant Welch. "I'd be more than happy to accept applications from any of our US workers who would like to relocate there. Just give our personnel department a call - and it will definitely help if you can speak Spanish!"

I was posting because I remembered reading it decades ago and seemed factual, but after re-reading it in detail this article is obviously fictionalized and satirical, and isn't a literal WSJ article.
