“Striking the Right Balance: Addressing Our Individual and Collective Responsibilities to Families and Communities.” Panelists address questions such as: What is the responsibility of bankers and investors whose quest for short-term gains wiped out the savings of millions of American citizens? What of the mortgage brokers and companies that cynically awarded loans to those who could not afford them? How do we strike the balance between the government’s responsibility to alleviate suffering and inequality, and the individual’s responsibility to face up to and address his or her own circumstances?
