Should more people on Wall St have gone to jail for their role in causing 2008? Curious to hear from people in the industry!

If a non-misdemeanor crime was committed, then yes. What crimes were committed by “Wall Street”? If none, should legislators be tried for allowing some behaviors to maintain legality? Should the homeowners whom lied on mortgage applications be brought to justice? And the Realtors who were egging on buyers by pitching purchases as solid investments?

There is plenty of blame to go around. Unfortunately people want to look past themselves, ignore personal responsibility, and blame anyone but themselves. Wall Street becomes the scape goat.

(I do not not have I ever worked with the firms considered when the tarp - pun intended- “Wall Street” is tossed over a collective group of large banking institutions.)

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%
