Re: Keeping Dead Industries Alive....
Is this what cmon is on about???
Scottish Coal, which operated six open cast mines in East Ayrshire, South Lanarkshire and Fife, has been put into liquidation. Falling coal prices and rising operational costs have been blamed for causing losses and "significant cash flow pressures". Announcing a total of 590 redundancies, KPMG said that despite significant efforts in recent months, Scottish Coal had been unable to secure the level of investment required to enable the business to continue. |

Re: Keeping Dead Industries Alive....
40 found alive in deadly Bangladesh building collapse - World - CBC News
Most definitely a "dead" industry  This is the ugly side of manufacturing's chasing the cheapest labor costs. At least one major Canadian company, Loblaw's, headed by billionaire Galen Weston, has blood on its hands. Maybe if our governments could persuade workers to slave for a minimum wage of $38.00 per month in conditions ... well, you can read as well as I can ... then the UK, Canada, the US, and most "civilised" western states could eliminate unemployment  This whole ugly mess is something one could think about when shopping at places like Primark ... yes, they are in it too ... for deals on clothing.
