A former executive at my company was all about cost-cutting. As he saw it, that was his sole function, to cut costs.

At a meeting, someone once asked him if it was ever possible to cut too far - and how he'd know if he had cut too deep.

His answer was: "You keep cutting until the screams are deafening, then you back off one inch."

Carnival may be getting close to that point....
