...taken a while for the blow to sink in. a market crash doesn't always come in a day. It can sneak up, slow and surreal, and you can think you survived it only to find it has barely begun. Now each week brings a new shudder and crack--first Enron and Arthur Anderson, then WorldCom, Adelphia, Xerox and the trials of Martha Stewart. Most Americans--72% in the TIME/CNN POLL--fear that they see not a few isolated cases but a pattern of deception by a large number of companies. In one survey, more than half of corporate chief...

By creating this department, America would open itself to terrorism from within--terrorism most would call fascism. BETH HATCHEL Forest Grove...
...opposition leader who chops off children’s hands and forces them to serve in his rebel army is not a figment of my imagination, but Foday Sankoh, leader of Sierra Leone’s Revolutionary United Front, whose list of war crimes would make even Henry Kissinger shudder and who is now in jail on murder charges. The collapsed state run by warlords? That would be Somalia...
