"It's just business."
Now we understand where the idiom "giving him the business" comes from.
Maybe we can merge this with income inequality thread. Disney is just giving these laid off workers an opportunity to better themselves. Maybe go back to school with their new found free time. Or pick up and relocate their family where the jobs are with the paycheck they won't be getting anymore.

That's who they hire for servants, and maintenance, and grounds crew. Immigrants from Mexico and Central America.
