Another egregious example about "Socialism for the Rich,
Capitalism for the Rest".

A company closes a plant in Chicage, giving its employees
3 days notice.  The company claims this is because Bank of
America won't provide the moeny they need.  And Bank of
America was a recipient of the Federal bailout money.

But the workers are not taking this lying down.

Interesting this is happening in Obama's hometown.
