Breaking it down, people with investments in the company (like old folks investing their retirement, or working stiffs with 401k's) who are required by law to be first in line in bankruptcy proceedings got robbed of everything. It was handed over to a bunch of unsecured creditors (unions).

What makes you think that it won't happen the next time?
That too.
