I say let them go down with the ship. Where was the government when all our other manufacturing jobs went south. The northeast has lost textile mills, paper mills, shoe factories, etc and we didn't see any bailouts for them -- union or non union. Corporate greed is the biggest offender -- that and trying to keep the stockholders happy. se la vive!
