- in most cases if a company dies then there is not much left over for any kind of 'parachute' and while it sucks for the employees, they always got paid.
This really is not true. Take for example the fallout of Enron. Most the people that had Enron stock in their retirement funds lost the majority of its value (out of the $2 billion owed them, they were able to sue for $85 million). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enron_scandal#Employees_and_shareholders
