Hi orda,
Well, that is ktc's line.
I don't want them castrated, devastated, defenestrated. I just want them gone and to put people in charge who understand the issues.
From a Wall Street angle, that means define a downside to risky transactions. If they can lose as well as win, they'll take sensible risks. But if you get ten bets in which you can make a million if you win one of them, and you lose nothing if you lose the others, who isn't going to take the risk. Yet in that scenario, 9 out of the 10 people who invested their money lost it. The broker walks away happy. The losers don't even realise they were had. They just think they were unlucky.
In sum, this is the incentive scheme called Wall Street.
