Taking Spyro7's estimate of 6.2 million employees in the financial industry that comes out to $2,200,000,000,000 / 5 years / 6,200,000 people = $70,968/year salary per person. Sounds like a lot less of a robbery when you divide it out.
That is a bail-out salary from the tax payer! I'd say that's a pretty hefty robbery, I believe it is well above the average per-capita income, so for most people this is more than a year's wages handed to them by the government.
