But I am not oblivious to the plight of those impacted in the short run
Good, we only now disagree on what is "the short run". Otherwise, I have much agreement with what you say. I see the lay of the land differently down there, but the overall I agree with. Lost my job as well, now make much less, they kicked me to save money, then hired more to do the same. I asked one of the partners recently if he had a spreadsheet showing the money they had saved. He laughed and said the spreadsheet would not show that.
If industries go under, or are mis-managed, or policies create hostile manufacturing environments, or crooks in DC steal jobs and money, and people lose their jobs, I feel for them but realize that happens. Those who own the world can determine when to shut down a business. Hopefully folks have skills, and can find other jobs. When a natural disaster hits (Ivan, Katrina, earthquake, tornado, etc) people lose jobs.
As you say, the difference here is the "cause". We have a culprit, or culprits who should "make right" for a long while. Will there be folks to take advantage, there always are, but the vetting process should be severe enough to handle.
Over and Out.
