If it's not an urgent and critical issue, then he would have just let it be, and would have let the free market for wages sort itself out. Instead, he actively sought to impair the ability of his own employees, the people he can most directly impact in life, to earn a living that was consistent with the intellectual capital they had spent years gaining, and all for the sake of his own personal gain. You guys can put as much lipstick on this pig as you want to, but what he did was truly shitty and not the action of a good person. Maybe he's changed, but I haven't heard an apology or anything (not that I'd expect to given the legal liability that would expose him to).
