Naive at best; Your statement doesn’t exclude greed as a driving factor. The legality of actions have nothing to do with the morality underlying them.
There's nothing immoral here. Shareholders aren't morally obligated to provide extra jobs for people who aren't adding value.
Great strawman; keep trucking

I never said anything about obligation. Of course they’re not obliged to provide extra jobs, but it is a moral obligation to treat those whom you employ with dignity. I would love to understand what you actually define as a moral obligation considering your vacuous response.

There's nothing undignified about terminating excess at-will employees.
Another great sidestep of actual discussion. A real master class in cowardice.
If your only guide to ethics is the law, you have utterly failed at ethics.
