Will More Bankruptcies Be Coming in 2009?
This morning I finished a blog for the Bankruptcy Law Network about rising bankruptcy rates. I wanted to go a bit further on the subject here. There are two different theories that have been floating around since I started that blog a couple of days ago. The first line of thought poses the question this way: if Bernanke and the Fed, Paulson and the Treasury, and Bush and the White House decide to nationalize the banking system, why will people need to file for bankruptcy? The second line of thought is: Bernanke and the Fed, Paulson and the Treasury, and Bush and the White House will not nationalize banks, but the taxpayers will own equity stakes in them, thereby increasing liquidity, and keeping the free markets open, which will cause more people to file for bankruptcy. There will be more to this story after the President speaks in a few minutes.
