"Well, it appears that another RV manufacturer has bitten the dust...Bigfoot, makers of Class C's, travel trailers, and slide-in truck campers."

It's a shame that a company that appeared to be weathering the storm gets it's line of credit shut down, killing the business.
 Too bad that some of the $700,000,000,000 of bailout money cannot go for providing credit to domestic companies that have a good chance of surviving the recession/depression.
Too many common people are losing their jobs due to the misdeeds of the financial industry.

True, but Bigfoot is/was a Canadian company so the US bailout dollars would likely never be directed their way.
