The very nature of American business dysfunction. Same thing happened to
Motorola's semiconductor sector. They used to be THE powerhouse for
semiconductors, and then a few years ago I watched at their original
fabrication plant just two miles from me was slowly demolished and carted away
to scrap dealers. All that remained was a saguaro cactus and s sign for the
credit union. The sign was stolen less than a year ago.
