This actually illustrates a rather broad concept among liberals. The idea that nothing can be allowed to fail. Unions don’t let companies, or public schools, fire bad workers. Or they make it prohibitively difficult to do so. Nationally, Obama and his liberals haven’t been willing to let unionized companies like GM and Chrysler fail so that they can be replaced by companies that can be run at a profit. They haven’t been willing to let banks fail either.Failure is a part of life. It should be a part of life, anyway.
Liberals forget that failure, in a free market and free society, is as important as success. Failure allows for the bad to be replaced by the good.
Remember, this same concept is what allows kids that are of deficient grade level to get promoted up through the grades - unwillingness of those to allow them to fail, even if it's for their own good. Can't hurt their feelings. Get them through the system and gone. Get paid either way.
