Workers compensation is a coverage that is common to most employers. It is also one of the insurance coverages that is susceptible to the widest pricing swings. As a result, employers have looked for viable alternative risk-financing methods to reduce the cost of workers comp. State regulators view self-insurance as a privilege and, as such, they allow it only when certain conditions are met.

Corporate law theory and practice considers shareholder relations with companies and the implications of ownership separated from control. Yet through the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) bailout and the government's resultant shareholding, ownership and control at many companies have merged, leaving corporate theory and practice for the financial and automotive sectors in chaos. The government's $700 billion bailout is a unique historical event; not merely because of its size, but also because of a resulting ripple through corporate scholarship and practice. This article builds on the author's five testimonies before Congress during the financial crisis and implementation of the TARP bailout and his consultation for the Special Inspector General for TARP. After considering corporat...
