...accused of doing anything wrong. When the investigations are over, many will be proved entirely trustworthy. And as for funds run by companies that are found guilty, there are limits to how low they can go. By law, a mutual fund can never go bankrupt. It cannot become insolvent unless all the stocks and bonds it owns go to zero (and not even a cheating manager can make that happen). Even if punitive fines put the managers out of business, the fund itself would bear no liability for their wrongdoing, and the value of its investments would be unaffected...
...Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. Thirty years ago, not many countries could master the technology to go nuclear. Now 30 or 40 can, if they get the components and equipment. The best way to deal with bad intentions is to control capability. Do we need the U.N. to do that? Unless you are ready to bomb your way through every country you suspect of developing weapons of mass destruction, I see no alternative to international inspectors.

I would advise avoiding anything deep-fried unless McDonald’s apple pie is your favorite dessert—in which case, you have plenty of options...
...Unless you’ve starred in a slew of major motion pictures, it’s difficult to imagine passing up the chance of living in JFK’s old dorm or a large party suite in the Pfoho belltower. Despite the fact that a whopping 98 percent of Harvard students live on campus, a small portion of daring and driven individuals venture off into Cambridge and beyond each year to live outside Harvard housing. In many cases, regardless of University attempts, students “just don’t like the housing system...
