And they should be permanently banned from working in the financial business.

I don't get it. The banks, and the people who run them, nearly destroyed the world's economy (no hyperbole!!), yet they're still free to work in banks? Most of them are still in their positions?

Wow. Just wow.


As a correction, I might suggest that the economic "system" destroyed itself. The players merely played it, and they followed the rules as they were written. The system was corrupt, though, and it was destined to collapse. The term "capitalism" will soon become an obscenity.
