What’s In A Contract

Much like words, contracts are supposed to mean things.

There is a big ‘BUT’ here. It is the fact that if you are a business that has accepted bailout money you have basically nullified any and all of your contracts.

When a contract is signed, the terms are supposed to set and the agreements are supposed to be binding. If the government comes in and bails a business out, that gives the government right to tell the business to renegotiate contract.

So what is in a contract could depend on what the government says it is.
