Gloopy said: I thought it was stated that they did apply for them because they had to get the application in prior to the deadline, but hadn't yet decided to file for them, which was in line with what everyone else is doing."

Denny says:

First of all I'm assuming you meant "didn't" instead of "did." If that's the case, then I guess they don't need the money that badly. If they did, they would have come to the decision to apply for the loans well before the deadline. No management team is stupid enough to let a deadline like this pass without making a conscious decision NOT to apply for the loans. If you actually think they hadn't decided yet, I think you need to rethink that. (To many uses of the word think but you get the point.)

If Management doesn't feel like it needs to take a loan from the US Government, then it certainly doesn't need a any kind of "loan" from us either. At this point, any kind of "loan," "relief" or whatever we give them is a mere pittance to what the US Government loan would have been.

Hold strong!!!
