Even when the banks become less profitable, they still pay the fat cats. This is why they went bankrupt last time. The biggest companies don't save, and instead just pay out to the partners and traders (gamblers). When they win they pay themselves handsomely. And when they lose on gambling with our debts they still pay themselves handsomely, all while wanting a bailout from the 99%.

To defend this is incredibly myopic.

we could have given every man woman and child 100,000 instead we get the bill and the ones who bankrupted the world get a bonus..Sounds like Treason

Yeah, and someone working hard, who makes one honest mistake will get fired and compensated with a kick to her/his ass.

Good rules increase freedoms, while bad ones decrease them.
