All the goodies are going away it seems.
Sales of the new stuff are probably down so much they changed their business model with respect to accommodating a dying product line and decided to emphasize cheaper stuff. If the high end people go away, the projections must indicate that losing them will not have a significant impact on profitability.
Loyalty, responsibility, truthfulness - corporations may be recognized as people in the eyes of the law, but they don't feel emotions. Corporate behavior is more along the lines of that of a sociopath.
Retirees from unions are having their promises retracted also - think how those people feel.
