In the meantime, what do you think about this entry from Brad DeLong's blog?
<blockquote>I had convinced myself that the PBGC's problems were not the result of moral hazard induced by its existence leading corporations to fund their pension funds with too-risky investments. I had convinced myself that the problem was that Congress (a) allows companies to take money back from the pension fund when stocks went up, while (b) letting them postpone putting money into the pension fund when stocks went down. It's not a market failure, it's a Capitol Hill failure. <http://www.j-bradford-delong.net/movable_type/2005-2_archives/ 000024.html></blockquote>
