and now they would rather die then give some of it up......its sad really

Not... really.  I mean.  It's basic buisness.

Say I work for you... and I get paid a lot... while you throw the rest of the money down the drain....

then you come to me to renegotiate my wages.

Why should I give you some of my money... I KNOW you're going to throw down the drain... since you've yet to fix the core problems with the buisness?  We're still going to go out of buisness... and the money i'm making vs the money your keeping isn't even going to make that much of a difference.

It's like saying that the Phoenix Suns are losing money so Shaq should give back some of his salary.  Shaq's money isn't going to do shit to save the company. It's not big enough.

Besides.  The unions have been making concessions for YEARS.  Long before the economic crisis.
