I agree.

We all demand cheaper products and services ( then complain that service 'ain't what it used to be') I suppose.

Clearly Volvo could not remain independant and today's car market is so competative you would need to cut costs to shift the tin.

I remember that in a village where I used to live everyone was up in arms when a local butcher announced it's closure - but they all bought their sausages at an out of town Sainsburys...
