while I agree in general (IMHO),
I would just like to point out, that there was a
news report, this year,
about the impact (of decreased Dec. celebrations),
on employees of businesses such as restaurants.
    I guess things are tough all over;
Anyway, it was not focusing on of the owners
    of restaurants --
the focus of the news item, was the impact on
    (e.g.) waiters and "bus boys".
    (and maybe, suppliers).
