No, no, no.  That's simply not how things are done in modern corporate
America.  First, costs must be passed on to customers.  Second,
shareholders must be pacified with dividends.  (Oh...those costs have
to be passed on as well.  Good thing there are customers!)  Finally:
promotions and bonuses for management, as the company *must* retain the
highly qualified and clearly irreplaceable people who've brought all this
about. (Optional: if a fall guy is needed, find that geek in IT who was
incessantly whining about poor site security.  Clearly not someone who's
"with the program", so fire his ass and let him take the blame.)
