Again, it's all about unions. They help the big boys spend billions in court fees, pensions and bloated salaries.
My dad used to work as a industrial designer in the 80's for GM (non-union)designing interiors. When they had to do lay-offs, he got dropped in the first go-round after 10 years because they couldn't touch the union guys making twice what he was for doing very little on the line. Pension, no way. Nice that the guys who spend 4 years in college and a crapload of money to become skilled valuable employees are easier to dump than the guys who drop out of high school and have their dads get them jobs.
