Unfortunately, all of the really good replies to your banker apologist riff there were done by AC.
I'm going to reply to your post, which has been modded up by some of the real idiots of /., to point out, as others have, that regardless if they paid the loans back, what they did wrecked the lives of lots and lots of people. Not only that, they were never prosecuted or jailed for these crimes that wrecked the lives of lots and lots of people. For someone to have to point these things out to you, shows your complete lack of comprehension at what those douche-bag bankers got away with.
For someone such as yourself to defend those douche-bags, and then get modded up for it, not only shows the ridiculousness of your politically motivated apology, but also shows the deep callousness towards common middle class Americans who bore the brunt of the The Great Recession.
