But still, you should brutally abuse the bankers, confiscate everything they have, make their families destitute. Take their homes and throw their wives and children out and drain their bank accounts (including the accounts of immediate family, children too) to ZERO$$$ and jail them. Just totally destroy them personally.
If they destroyed others, why not?
What makes them so special?
Think of the black family in which the mother and father, both working in healthcare, both lost their jobs at the same time during the recession.
They had two or more toddlers. The Dad was so distraught he killed himself and his whole family.
People committing financial manipulations that lead to that level of social distress deserve punishment. Extreme punishment.
They should not be immune to the impact of what they are doing.
The financial industry is supposed to provide services, not enslavement and financial ruin to its customers.
Financial manipulations that steal money from others are outright theft. Additionally, it is theft from trusting people that are attempting to be prudent and responsible with their assets.
There is no excuse for the piratical practices the financial industry has been playing with. They have turned a responsible, useful stock market into a den of iniquitous gambling in which only the financial manipulators understand all of the rules, and in which only the most wealthy can afford the moment-to-moment trades based on costly mathematical formulas.
