DALLAS/FORT WORTH -- When the credit bubble popped last fall, shock waves rippled across nearly every sector of the economy. 

The government responded by tossing a financial life jacket to lumbering corporate giants like AIG and General Motors, but at what long-term cost?

This month on CEO, host Lee Cullum leads a roundtable discussion of The New Capitalism with Richard Fisher, President and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and Alan Boeckmann, Chairman and CEO of Fluor Corporation.
