- Are We On the Brink of a Microeconomic Explosion?
There's a saying among economists-"The definition of recession is when your neighbor loses his or her job. The definition of depression is when you or your spouse loses his or her job." The true economic definition of a recession is a significant decline in general economic activity extending over a period of time. The true economic definition of depression is essentially a longer than expected recession. New bankruptcy law. As bankruptcies continued to soar from one year to the next, a new law came into effect that made it harder for people who are overextended to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection.

- To File or Not to File: The Causes of Municipal Bankruptcy in the United States
About 500 municipalities have declared bankruptcy since Congress passed the Municipal Bankruptcy Act in 1937. Based on the experiences of these municipalities and the municipal bankruptcy literature, this paper develops a theory of why municipalities go bankrupt and discusses various ways to prevent other municipalities from going bankrupt. The paper identifies three-dimensional factors that may make municipalities go bankrupt: long-term and short-term, political and economic, and internal and external perspectives. The paper ends with an observation that government failure in the form of municipal bankruptcy can be reduced by strengthening the audit powers of the states and by utilizing more municipal band and liability insurance policies.
