Sorry, but bankruptcy to me means you did something poorly and are facing the consequences. I don't like loopholes and bankruptcy in most cases is just that. It may be legal but that doesn't help the people who got shafted get what is legally coming to them.

We'll just have to agree to disagree on loopholes. :)

I hear you. BUT there are many reasons for bankruptcy. Over taxation, regulations, economy, customers that don't pay, suppliers who can't/deliver on time and yes poor management. I am all for living wages but I wonder how many jobs will be lost by those who can only work in fast food and other service jobs when wages go to $15.? Mc Donalds is installing kiosks in some place to allow customers to place order without workers. Punch button on what you order, zip credit card and turn around and pick up what you want.

I remember as a kid how there was a big sensation about food being placed in machines. One person could fill enough to service a hundred customers. Kind of like vending machines today. Didn't get very far but I see them returning.

Minimum wage increases have nothing to do with why Mickey D"s wanting to automate. They will do it anyways even if minimum wage were to stay the same. Automation in all industries has been a major contributor to job loss in this Country.
