    You have to be blind not to see healthcare and the rising costs not figuring into hiring ! Why would any company make any move before the Supreme Court makes it's landmark choice and all the follow up moves are made. It isn't like there is any huge demand for goods an services that are not being handled.
    The principal behind productivity is shrinking the workforce and the wave of buyouts and takeovers are looking for synergies.That means more workforce shrinkage too !
    Common sense ?
