Allowing a company to die on the vine does not remove the demand for services, nor the need for employees. There will be someone else waiting in line who can perhaps do a better job and offer their employees security based upon financial strength rather than taxpayer bailouts. The Republicans don't want welfare for the poor, we shouldn't give welfare to the rich.

This may be a good damn time for leveling some playing fields.
