It's time to Occupy!
Actually, you're likely a socialist if you express socialist views. You consistently back the ultra liberal thought train. So far you have shown no propensity to view the situation as it is, but rather as whatever your liberal friends and community organizers (union reps) are saying...

The problems stem from the financial and housing practices that Barney Frank has implemented through the House Financial Services commitee, as a great starting point.

Or worse, have the feds put the owner and customers in jail since it is a federal offense.
Do you realize that most of the bonuses were tied to performance? Which means they got a small percentage of the profit margin for their excellent performance? Your bank itself, as a profit-driven machine, banked the billions while paying a pittance (in comparison) on the profits that person or division brought-in to the company. Had y'all as much experience, drive and ambition as those getting the bonuses, I'll bet you'd feel you've earned every penny. If not, you end-up in the mail sorting room dangerously close to the unemployment line.
"The short report has a few more interesting graphs. First, they throw together a quick graph of Wall Street bonuses. These bonuses are tied to performance and so big that they often represent more than a finance worker’s annual salary."
