You think so? Because that is not the way that I see things. CO is at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to labor over the past couple of years due tot he fact that they couldn't force the unions into a corner with their bankruptcy proceedings. Yes, CO has been bust a few times before, but that was quite some time ago, and things are so different now that those concessions don't really influence the way that they do business these days, imho.
