Morale would go down? How good is morale when people are going into work every day expecting a pink slip? I don't see how company showing its employees that it cares enough about them to do whatever it takes to keep them employed would ever have a negative effect on morale.

100k? Try closer to 400k. Unemployment is at 9%, up 2.1 from last year.
