50. It's the cycle.. Companies do this all the time.. (winn-dixie buy outs)
Edited on Tue Jun-21-05 04:54 PM by SoCalDem
They hate competition so much, that they buy up all their copmpetitors, even though they cannot afford it. They hold on to all those gobbled up acquisitions long enough, so that no NEW competition arrives..then after a time, they just jettison them, and their employees..

The real losers are the customers who now have nowhere to shop.... Enter walmart:(


This chronicles their buy-outs over the years..
