America: Too Big To Fail



In his book, Too Big To Fail, Policies and Practices in Government Bailouts, book editor Benton E Gup, Alan Greenspan was quoted as saying when reacting to the Chrysler bailout over two decades ago, he stated he feared that not "that it would fail (Chrysler), but that it would succeed." According to John Gordon: "History Repeats in Finance Company Bailouts," Wall Street Journal. Greenspan was alluding to the fact that "fear and greed are two compelling forces present in markets."

Larry records these facts: As a nation and society the public’s tolerance for corporate misbehavior has reached its breaking point. With the popularity and wealth of information available via the Internet, access to this information via the Internet has made gathering important facts about corporate practices and malpractices easier than ever to obtain. For any investor, share or stakeholder having up-to-the minute information is not only for protecting investments, but also knowing when executives have not been completely honest about actual and factual corporate revenues such as in the case of Enron. Being well informed consumers is the key to keeping one’s interests and investments in corporations safe from abuse.
