    1. What led to the eventual collapse of Enron under Lay and Skilling?

    The causes of the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe were that it had no popular support‚ political downfall‚ and economic problems.

    While each person chosen to live on the colony has to be smart‚ loyal‚ brave‚ compassionate‚ etcetera‚ I believe that each person also has to have unique skill sets that set them apart from the others.
