I think you're right, friend, I think... That said, Why does a company like Google obsess so much over margins, when they have 70 BILLION dollars in equity, 50 Billion dollars in annual revenues, and 20% profit margins (11 figures, 11 and Billion annually in net revenue alone...) I think it's myopic. Not that any company need to keep extra employees, if they don't need them, but there's too much obsession over margins amongst these fortune 50's, and I think that it is bad for creativity in the long run #soapbox
