You can find the whole movie on youtube btw and watch it legally. I strongly recommend it, it is both hilarious and eerily accurate.

This is true, and also somewhat timely (in that the pressure from the emerging middle class in China leads to the need of said restructuring). This is going to be very painful though. As all restructures are.
