It should be illegal to do company stock buybacks within 1 year of any workforce reduction which is the lesser of 3% of work force or 100 employees.

it should be illegal period .... or at least SEC regulated (if we had an SEC that wasn't a captured agency) There should be a legitimate reason other than shareholder greed.
