>I'm not seeing a clear solution for this culture of toying with thousands of peoples' lives for a quick buck

A bit over-dramatic, no? Nothing to say about the employees who left their companies for Google to "make a quick buck"?

Business expand and contract. Should Google be considered a retirement home? The people who took these jobs are smart men and women who will go on to work at other companies. This isn't new.

Seriously, these companies were and still are paying insane salaries.

I have no sympathy.
