Big D, I'm not familiar with the history of Lehman. Have they ever put up their personal assets to guarantee payment on their contracts? Hartford did when NYC burned in the 1800's.

In the Chicago and San Fran disasters Hartford paid all of their obligations while many other carriers simply folded. Hartford has helped rebuild major cities in our country several times. Hartford has helped the USA in a very significant way several times.

From what I know of Lehman they are strictly an investment house, one that ran into difficulty from mismanagement. All they did was push paper.

Again, I'm not saying I agree with it, but should they just fold? If the avenue is there should they not try to survive?

Call your congressman and complain about the loophole, they are the ones who put it there.
