:=Well, just to play Devil's advocate-- perhaps the job wasn't *worth* the 
:=70k?  Even 50k is a pretty decent salary, you know...

It was worth 70k when he was hired/given a raise to that much.  Suddenly it
isn't?  Did the job requirements change?  Unlikely.  Is there suddenly less
work for the position?  Probably not.  Just an employer with no loyalty to
its employees that says "Gee, I can get a young guy from out of country for
20k less.  That'll reduce my budget and I'll probably get a bonus at end of
quarter/end of year."
