What is it you want to do to the rich Wall Street bankers?

Oh, me. I am so tired of being called a class envious socialist that I think they ought to keep all of their ill-gotten loot. Indeed, let us provide jets for them to take it all to Switzerland and not pay any taxes on it at all. Last thing I would want to do is take any of this money back which they stole by the sweat of their own brows pouring over the books of their funds at 3AM while their investors were idiotically sound asleep.

Besides we need them. Without their genius in investment [sarcasm emphasized for nitwits like you who cannot get a point] who will finance the next boom in big box stores, Miami condos and casinos in Vegas and Atlantic City, all of those enterprises upon which the wheels of American industry turn [again emphasizing the dripping pointed sarcasm].

If you're getting feedback from multiple people along those lines then maybe they have a point. Leftism is motivated by envy and resentment, so whenever you throw an envy tantrum you come off sounding exactly like a leftist.

You didn't answer my question seriously. What do you want to do to the Wall Street bankers? Confiscate their commissions after the buyer lost their shirt? No one made anybody buy the new fangled scrutinized mortgages. It was a stupid product idea but salesmen, and politicians, sell stupid ideas all the time.

Leftist politics caused this depression and now leftists have exploited the situation to impose much more socialism. Your attention seems to be diverted away from the main action towards confiscating past commissions made on Wall Street, just like a leftist. Other than fleetingly placating your envy and resentment, how would that solve anything?

Bubbles are really bad. Right now we've got a government bubble forming. Half of America seems to be cheering for the total financial destruction of America, out of envy of other Americans.
