So why throw bad money after good?
They're shipping those jobs overseas, and then still going bankrupt even after doing that.

Those jobs were a sunk cost, a cost encurred by absurd management over the past 10 years. The question is how many jobs NOT YET lost can be saved. That's what the government funding is designed to accomplish.

No sense crying over spilled milk.
