[QUOTE="Yora, post: 6014929, member: 6670763"] I'm not an economist, but I think that's where all those bonuses come into play. It is decided that the people in charge get extra pay if certain departments improve their profits and less if the departmens perform more poorly than in the past. And at some point there will be someone who sees those numbers and who is thinking "if I can get these numbers to improve, I get paid a bonus, advance my career, and secure my employment." Because someone will be in charge of monitoring the work of the departments and his job depends on making sure the department generates a steady stream of profit. And if Johns supperior sees that the department overseen by John is doing more poorly every year, the superior might not care why this is the case, but just find someone else to do his job. [/QUOTE]
