JLI: Ethics of Debt Discharge |
8:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Lesson 3 | Morally Bankrupt? The Ethics of Debt Discharge (Evening Option)
In times of old, when a debtor was not able to repay his debts, he was sold as a slave or thrown into prison. Today, we have bankruptcy laws that protect individuals from this fate. But is it ethical to borrow without repaying? If someone earns the money later in life, should they be obligated to repay their settled debts? This lesson explores the Jewish legal perspective on bankruptcy, emphasizing how we can incorporate secular local laws and customs into Jewish law. |  Event Location: Chabad Intown

Lesson 4 | State of the Union: The Right to Organize, to Bargain Collectively, and to Strike (Evening Option)

And does it matter whether they are public- or private-sector employees? Should the right to strike be granted, despite the harm it can cause to society? Does the type of industry make a difference? This lesson will present the Talmud's enlightening spin on unionization, collective bargaining, and strikes. | Event Location: Chabad Intown

Lesson 6 | Buyer Aware: Another Side to Business Ethics (Evening Option)
