The amount of companies going bankrupt because the board has taken all their money seems very high.
We seem to be squarely in the "loot all the well known brands, take whatever is not nailed down, and leave their carcasses by the side of the road" stage of Capitalism.
It seems that every brand starts out with noble intentions, then after rising to meteoric success, they get gutted and we have to wait for the new, high quality up start.
