Business has to do what it has to do to stay in business. Given what has gone on over the past 18 months of off the charts spending and the tsunami of more gov. regulation and taxes to generates revenue to pay for this crap I don't see labor savings going to profits. The "savings", if there is any, is going to pay for increased medical coverage for its workers, increased taxes, increased energy costs due no nukes being built and resulting high cost of "green" energy. The only green in green energy is what we'll all be shoveling out to pay for this 21st century scam. If the country's not moving and HD drops prices to move product there's your savings. It will show up on there balance sheet as a loss and your gain if you can afford it.
