This article entitled "Why isn't Wall Street in Jail" will answer your question. You may not be pleased with the answer, but it will answer it.

HAHHAHA
"You put Lloyd Blankfein in pound-me-in-the-ass prison for one six-month term, and all this bullshit would stop, all over Wall Street," says a former congressional aide. "That's all it would take. Just once."

My dad is an incredibly hard working doctor who had nothing to do with this. He works about 12 hours a day. Why should he be grouped into this "tax the rich" mentality which just comes out of payback when he didn't do anything wrong.
wow, you're an idiot, just because he works hard and saves people's lives doesn't mean he isn't evil, just like the rest of the rich people. he is "rich" and all rich people are evil. you should know that your father is an evil person and it is his fault why many people are out of jobs, and the entire economic collapse was his fault too. no matter how much money your dad donates to the poor, or how many church services he can attend, just know that he is and will always be evil because he is a doctor and has a lot of money. your dad's only hope at being a good person is quitting his job and going on welfare.
Ha ha I was about to get angry there but that was pretty good. +1

Why shouldn't THEY (the Wall Street scum) take the hit since they caused all this sh*t?
Tax 'em.
And PLEASE don't feed me this bulls*it about how skilled they are. If I screwed up like they did I'd be out of a job with no damned golden parachute. And NEVERMIND this new BS about "legally binding contracts".
F*ck wall street, the fed, the regulators, congress and all their hired lackeys and mouthpieces.
It's impossible to express my rage at all this without getting vitriolic & nasty.
NONE of them got so much as spit upon.
Your premise is false. "Wall Street" didn't cause America's economic problems - YOU DID.

The other question is why does anyone bother to care about this stuff anymore or vote since the game is so obviously fixed.
Ralph Nader was on the ballot in most states. Or if you are not into Medicare for all and other "progressive" issues that Nader represents than there is the Libertarian Party. Which I think is a little nutty but hardly more so than what the two major parties have become. Both those candidates offered clearly different options to dealing with the Wall Street crises.
Point being is Americans had options, but they overwhelmingly voted for what we have now. Which is fine. But before you say "the game is fixed" why don't you try voting for what you believe in. Because you really can do that.

Haha very funny, thank you. At first when I saw "you're an idiot" I thought, oh typical letsrun response. But it ended up being a great reply!
