And why not? Rewarding catastrophic failure of the Wall Street fat cats with tax payer money is unethical and disgusting.

The Wall Street types should be thankful that they are not being carted away to prison pending trial for the crimes that’ve committed in the financial markets.

"And why not?"

Because it's not your business what a board decides to pay a CEO. Not your business no matter what. Not even if taxpayers are looted to prop up an industry.

"why not".. cripes!

What crimes? Who committed the crimes? Who deserves to be carted off? Why aren't they being carted off? To whom should Wall Street types and fat cats be thankful?
