Remember me? The textile industry.I didn't get a bail out.
In fact, it was the action of the US government that helped kill me.
From 2001 through 2003 over 320,000 textile jobs were eliminated in the United States. More than 20,000 of those jobs were from the state of South Carolina alone.
Still no bail out.
What makes one manufacturing industry more valuble than another?

I guess the textile CEOs didn't have private jets to fly to washington on.
Good question...this does make you wonder. I think about steel too and the entire rust belt of the US where tons of tiny towns literally died away...what about them?
