This is going on year in year out, draining the economy. The largest expense of big banks is compensation. They simply pay themselves large amounts.

The largest amount of money is taken by people that do nothing for it, paracitising the economy, draining your wallet.
And who created this "loophole" that the banks are taking advantage of? The government, no?

I don't know where in the constitution "income inequality" is discussed. This is America - you are free to make a boat load of money (microsoft, google, facebook, etc.) and you are also free to fail. I personally feel that the banks and GM are not too big too fail and in my opinion they shouldn't have been bailed out.

Thank you for the link.
