If they don't, P & G will.

As soon as I read the story I thought exactly the same thing. This either makes P&G/Gillette competitive or it sinks them and thousands of jobs. BTW, I think I remember that P&G is closing US factories and opening up Mexican and other foreign factories as foreign growth is outstripping US growth for things like toothpaste and soap. I guess the French are advancing after all.
