Well, the difference between the general population and Wall Street is that on Wall Street being a psychopath is prerequisite.
They're not psychopaths ... they're political contributors ... to both parties.
I have to disagree with the expert guests. You can legislate change in the financial industry.
1. The capital gains tax I proposed going from 0% to 100% gradually will eliminate speculation and microtrading and all bubbles.
2. Start prosecuting fraud. A few too-big-too-fail CEOs go to pound-me-ass prison for 100 years and this will stop damn fast.
3. Fine away all "fuck you" money when fraud is committed.
4. Standardize and simplify all financial products. Having a billion variations of the same thing is not useful. It's counter-productive because it decreases understandings of contracts and products.
5. Any company that is too-big-to-fail is too-big-to-exist under anti-trust laws, by definition. All such companies should be broken apart immediately.
And that's just to start.
