It's a complex issue. I'd think that there are other side benefits which come from the short-term challenges, I've read that a whole reuse industry will be helped by this, and products such as those that I help sell -- which enable improved manufacturing productivity -- allow companies to do more will less.
It certainly sucks if workers are impacted, but I wouldn't base policy off of one story. Any big picture change is going to hurt some people somewhere, and this companies position is going to be influenced by many factors.
Perhaps part of the reason their margins are so low is that they've resisted market pressure to innovate their own business model.
Old school companies often do not like to change.
