I was only joking about Starbucks. There was a little article yesterday on CNN about brands that have gone away. I think more will. I understand Ann Taylor and Talbots are in trouble. I have a Talbots card and they have sent me so many promotions lately with discounts and free shipping.

You have to let them fail or at least restructure. I think it is the spector of the massive job loss that keeps the bail out talk going.

I read an intereting article in Business Week a number of years ago that predicted that the day of the secure longtime job was ending. Basically said that eventually, most of the workforce would be self employed and hire out their services for a particular project, while not becoming a company employee. The article said that the companies would no longer be able to afford the overhead.
