| | LOCAL COMMENT: Fix health care before it bankrupts firms, workers |
| | While this no-nonsense approach may ruffle some congressional feathers, the reality is that trying to ameliorate the concerns of private sector insurers while simultaneously serving the public interest has so far failed to solve the crisis. | | | As a nation we must respond to the cost crisis that confronts us with a national strategy that will help employers without bankrupting employees -- and that treats health care as a right for all rather than a privilege for some. | | | BY LEO GERARD AND JEFFREY R. The rising tide of health insurance costs continues to overwhelm employers, according to a recent national survey of employer-sponsored health plans. |

| | Main effects of being declared bankrupt |
| | Attempting to run a business can be hampered by being an undischarged bankrupt, since credit will be nigh on impossible. | | | An undischarged bankrupt must declare his status when seeking credit of more than £500, including hire purchase and conditional sale agreements. | | | The rules for professions such as solicitors and accountants make it virtually impossible for people who've been bankrupted to work in these professions. |

| | Collective Moral Responsibility [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
| | Thousands of employees, particularly in the case of the now bankrupt Enron, lost their jobs and their company pensions as it became clear that Enron and Worldcom had intentionally misrepresented their true financial conditions by submitting false and misleading accounting statements. | | | At the dawn of the 21st century, the financial malfeasance, such as represented by the cases of the Enron and Tyco corporations, has come to be synonymous for many with corporate wrongdoing. | | | It has been troubling that most of the high-ranking executives who were individually culpable for the accounting malfeasance at these companies have been able to avoid legal punishment, but the collective or corporate dimension of the wrongdoing is equally important to address. |

| | Bankruptcy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Bankruptcy fraud is a business crime of filing for bankruptcy with criminal intent, that is with the intention of evading payment for goods even though the buyer has funds that could be used to pay for them, or accepting payment for goods or services but not supplying them. | | | The primary purpose of the laws of bankruptcy are: (1) to give an honest debtor a "fresh start" in life by relieving the debtor of most debts, and (2) to repay creditors in an orderly manner to the extent that the debtor has property available for payment. | | | Bankruptcy is a legally declared inability or impairment of ability of an individual or organization to pay their creditors. |

| | Granted, the threat of becoming a bankrupt could be terrifying, but how likely was such personal economic disaster to occur? | | | In an age that lacked almost all forms of modern social security, the threat of becoming a bankrupt was extremely serious -- even after the closure of the debtor's prisons that Dickens anachronistically depicted in Little Dorrit. | | | With good reason Victorian novelists represent the bankrupt as a person shipwrecked and castaway, a human being helpless against indifferent forces of nature. |
