Heres my analogy whihc seldome works out here, but here goes.
99.9% of the people that see the movie Jaws, come away saying the movie is about an evil shark that terrorizes a beach community. As a fisherman, I know that shark is just doing what sharks do, hunting and eating. It is not bad. When people get in the water, they're in the sharks territory and are potenital victims. So who do you blame for the deaths? The shark? The people who were swimming? Or the the town officials that should have banned swimming?
Right now what you are seeing is equivalent in the movie to all the yahoos in the water going out to kill all the sharks. But now its Wall St. And like in the movie, there will be useless slaughter and will set us back even further while we pursue the perceived villians.
The guilty MUST be punished, but lets make it a smart process and not victimize the hundreds of thousands of innocent "sharks" that keep this countyr working , create creative retirement and educational savings products and provide a critical service for the world. Without them, all you have is the government and social security.
