Yes, the cash figures have been higher but no one ever addresses the reality that the % are the same and since the $ isn't worth what is was the record profit argument is essentially moot. They are making plenty of cash and could sacrifice and provide people with jobs, it might actually create some good will and loyalty among spenders. It is all very unlikely though without some hand holding or ass kicking, though the latter seems like it will never happen.
