Oh they will eventually cut much more than that.

I agree. What stands out most to me is they're closing 960 stores IN A RECESSION. Recessions are when movie rental places shine. Everyone stops buying and starts renting.

If you can't succeed even when the scales are tipped in your favor then you probably can't succeed at all.
