They probably expect you to.
The national bankruptcy laws change in Oct. There are more than a few
corporations getting ready to declare themselves bust, to get out ahead
of the curve, and get away with as much luchre as they can. Here in
Minneapolis, it's Northwest Airlines screwing over their workers, and
headed for insolvency, which - for CEOs - means golden parachute time.
So Blockbuster probably wants you to dump'em. That's one more reason to
declare bankruptcy and head off to the Caymans with as much money as
they can squeeze out of their employees and suppliers.
Capitalism's grand, ain't it?
