And if the water stops running, the plumber isn't useful either. If the managers go home, who pays the workers? If the workers aren't paid, why do they show up? There is work to be done above basic production, and unskilled labor doesn't tend to do it.

Communism is not a good system because (most of) those people in suits do create value. Can you hedge a mining companies position? No? Then your claim that your brother not being able to fix a car is proof he's not valuable is no more valid than if I claimed you create no value because you can't perform a complex task.

@genghisdon1 They did NOT perform successfuly or well, are you temporarily insane?

THEY SHOULD BE IN JAIL, NOT MAKING $250000+

The banks/firms in question should have been ELIMINATED (and the upper management along with them)

Again you speak to (admitedly larger) other crimes as if it negates lesser offenses. HTF does your brain figure NO justice is better than a little bit of justice? Suffer from ALL OR NOTHING thinking much? A couple dollars? Get a grip, man

class warfare? that is rediculous. The poor & middle class are simply oppressed by the elites. I pray for class warfare to actually begin. Eat the rich!

Defending AIG again???!!! GOOD GAWDS! why are you a corporate shill Stef? FUCK the AIG jackasses...the ought have all their assets confiscated & distributed among their VICTUMS. Actual carpet bombing of AIG buildings world wide sounds fine to me.

It's not a "feeling" it is a fact Stefan

[ShinEmperor]

Thanks for the content Stefbot. I respectfully disagree with the assessment.

[dapple33]

Stefbot, I believe you to be a paid a paid shill who is excepting money to manipulate public opinion.

To do nothing now is to endorse a system that has been perverted by the wealthy to earn terrific gains in the short term but is doomed to collapse over and over again. I.E the the bubble forming boom bust economy.

Also, the price these companies were allowed to fail, like in any try economy, these senior executives would be out of the job, and would receive no pay.

@fps0chris : They are parasitic by nature. They are dependent upon a host and produce nothing of value themselves. No need for a crystal ball.

[fps0chris]

@klard Can you tell me where you bought your crystal ball in which you can see that bankers wouldn't have a valuable talent in a free society?

[fps0chris]

@mikeybrumbrum thats the point of the free market. lol

[sniped101]

lol, these bankers got skills. immoral skills but skills nevertheless.

[klard]

He is way off the deep end here arguing that theses bankers have some kind of valuable talent. Might as well argue that limiting the money the mafia can earn will mean the best gangsters will go elsewhere. These bankers are criminals. I hope they do all get out of the financial industry. The percentage of our economy skimmed off by the financial sector has risen to over 40% at the expense of people who actually produce something.
