As parts of the national economy continue to
struggle, jobs are still being lost. As this is
unfortunate of many people, it might lend a
hand to some Transformers collectors looking to
find the silver lining in the shape of discounted
toys in a closing K-Mart or Sears store.

Silver lining? "Sucks about your jobs and all, but I got my TOYS! Oh, what's that? You won't be able to buy any for your kids and can't even feed them now? D'aww, too bad."
There is no silver lining. The article should've been left at people losing their jobs and how unfortunate it is.
*smh*

This is a Transformers website, not a "the world sucks, please post sympathy" site/forum. I think everyone knows it sucks when a business fails, regardless of the economic state in the world.
And given this is, specifically, the toy forum, it's alerting anyone looking for toys (either for themselves, relatives or charities) that sales (potentially really steep sales) are coming in the future.
You can't stop a business from going out when they've declared a state of bankruptcy or are making moves to prevent bankruptcy. We should just be thankful the corporation is smart enough to take steps to prevent their entire self from caving in and wish luck to those who are about to be effected by it. But that doesn't mean the point of this website (Transformers) needs to be neglected. It that were the case, why post it in the new section in the first place.
