Wait, Luigi had a mentor?!
Purple jacket person is organising a cabal of ethical assassins.

This one is more of a trolley solution
It’s a problem for CEOs and shareholders! Why won’t you think of the poor CEOs and shareholders!
It’s certainly not a problem.
“Funny” story - at my prior employer, my department would outsource a bit more labor overseas each year to reduce costs. Year after year we were able to deliver 5-10% cost reductions, mostly through outsourcing. When I started with the company, we were about 40% outsourced, when I left we were over 80%, but it took many years to get there.
Over the years, we could have returned vastly more money to shareholders if we had outsourced more quickly, but our department leadership understood that they have to show improvement every year, so its bad business to save all the money at once (even though the savings would increase profitability permanently).
In the last 2 years, many of those leaders have moved on to other roles, in part because they understood we were nearing the end of the road for that strategy. I would be very curious to see how the next 2-3 years goes for the new leaders, but I also had a good opportunity to leave before things get ugly.

The next strategy is to save money by consolidating operations under one roof. Duh.

This is a little on the nose but I still laughed.
Hopefully it’s on more than the nose.
It saves many people by switching
in fact, it probably even saves many people if switching is a reasonable threat.
It doesn’t automatically save anyone. The CEO isn’t personally murdering anyone. Their policies don’t go away. The health care industry isn’t magically made better by one CEOs death. It leads to a slight chance of health care reform as the comic states. But we actually have to do more to get that outcome.

You’re right, probably more needs to die for real change
That’s a crappy way to tie someone to a track. A lot more meat to have to plow through, making derailment more likely.
I like how the guy in the bottom two panels is Luigi.
Sure but notice they also told him up feet first so in case it fails to kill him he at least gets to make an insurance claim for his new pre-existing condition of mangled trolley legs.
