#4 I think in this case, they were on their way down the crapper anyway and they thought the politicking would be a lifeline.

#7 Software Expert? WTF - the stupidest thing I've heard all this month. Listening to local news on BBB and the spin was that it was the fault of consumers. No mention of the My Pillow kerfuffle whatsoever - it never happened (waves wand).

#8 BBB was doomed. Kohl’s and Target are in the same guide path. They can hold out for longer if they refrain from alienating customers, but profitability and viability seems not to enter into their calculus.
