Here's a simple hypothetical question: If you or I were to steal a pack of gum from a store and were caught we would have been charged with a misdemeanor. And it would remain in our background record for 10 years.

What does a banker have to do before he/she can be charged with at least a misdemeanor? You're right about the government having a hand in the crisis, but this is ridiculous that no banker was charged.
