The banking executives now managing billions in taxpayer money are the same ones who oversaw the industry's near collapse.
At banks receiving federal bailout money, nearly nine of every 10 of the most senior executives from 2006 are still on the job, according to an Associated Press analysis of regulatory and company documents.
Even top executives whose banks made such risky loans they imperiled the economy have been largely spared any threat to their jobs. Less fortunate are more than 100,000 bank employees laid off during a two-year stretch when industry unemployment nearly tripled, bank stocks plummeted and credit dried up.

biggest irony now is incentivizing the SEC by compensating them on how many cheats they bring to light versus de-incentivizing captains of industry by limiting pay

rad...maybe BHO should tie compensation to corporate results instead of putting a cap on pay. I bet those rich, spoiled pricks would still run for the hills.

yes, because that's what's being argued for. That's a CNN spin if I've ever seen one. Must admit...didn't expect it from you.
