Passage B
The miserable fate of Enron
?/p>
s employees will be a landmark in business history, one
of
those
awful
events
that
everyone
agrees
must
never
be
allowed
to
happen
again.
This
urge
is
understandable
and
noble:
thousands
have
lost
virtually
all
their
retirement savings with the demise of Enron stock. But making sure it never happens
again
may

for the elderly (Social Security in the U.S.). Labour unions promised not only better
pay for workers but also pensions for retirees. Giant corporations came into being and
offered
the
possibility
?/p>
in
some
cases
the
promise
?/p>
of
lifetime
employment
