Your comparison is off by several orders of magnitude, for starters. Second off, none of it matters. Therefore, that particular argument is both untrue and dumb.
As far as the nature of contracts, unions, etc - that's all fine and well. If they can maneuver legally to get out of those contracts/pay them out, then good for them. If not, sucks to be them. Either way, no one is breaking any laws here as far as I can tell.
Now, you may not like it - but that's irrelevant. If they don't want to hire any more union labor, that should be their prerogative. If they don't want to offer pensions to new employees, that too should be their prerogative. As long as they're not robbing employees of earned money, I don't see a problem.
Now, the free market dictates that perhaps their talent pool suffers by decreasing compensation. If this proves to be the case, then that's what they get. But I'm betting they'll find talent that is more-than-adequate for the offered compensation.
