Zombie Company
March 19
1. A technically bankrupt company that is kept alive with large
infusions of government money for the sake of "stability" in the U.S.
financial system. 2. A large financial company with negative net worth
that continues to operate, despite having no clear path to solvency.
3. The UnDead of Wall Street.
"AIG is the premier example of a zombie company -- kept alive only by
$120 billion in federal bailout money. Apparently, it's considered too
large to fail."

A zombie is a person who behaves like human automaton (usually after
being resurrected and stripped of their soul), most commonly seen in
fiction as a reanimated human corpse.[1][2] Stories of zombies
originated in the Afro-Caribbean spiritual belief system of Vodou,
which told of the people being controlled as laborers by a powerful
sorcerer. Zombies became a popular device in modern horror fiction,
largely because of the success of George A. Romero's 1968 film Night
of the Living Dead.
