What?

Presumably UK bankers will be no different, but the information has yet to be leaked.

And then you wonder why everybody hates them.

They did their work marvelously, they screwed up everybody with money that didn't belonged to them in the first place, and now they'll give prizes to themselves and brag about the size of the pot they were able to get despite the mess.

These are the moments when I find the Chinese solutions attractive (executions for CEOs, boards and executives) despite my natural dislike about the death penalty .

They could all be locked up and told they were on Death Row, but with no executions planned at all. That way your dislike of the penalty would be honoured in the deed but not the word.

Ayuh, and remove one randomly every so often, to throw the fear into the rest.  The removed ones can go to a secret prison somewhere to be held indefinitely for crimes against the people.

Random pointless violence* against them would be a good fear-inducing tool.


*such as cutting up credit cards, showing them footage of hackers cracking their systems and people wiping their bottoms with money. Then charging them for it.

kicking them in the nuts until their hair bleeds is always a crowd-pleaser too....

Aggie, your theory appeals, but I deduce there would be a need for a large number of prisons, closely approaching the number of bankers. I've been watching an excellent program on The History of Maths; I may have to reach for my jarrow sticks.

Hmmm. So you would not confiscate their possesions when they enter Death Row?  Wouldn't this imply that they might be moving on somewhere? Like, maybe by train? I think we'd need to develop a plot line about why they need their credit cards on Death Row, because otherwise they might not believe us when we told them it was Death Row. Hmmm. Wait a minute. I think you've got it right. We do let them have all their possesions on Death Row. That's very clever !

They'll need their credit cards to buy cigarettes, doritos, that sort of thing. (Even in prison, there is an economic system for goods and...services.)



Of course, there is no reason not to apply a 'penalty' rate of interest on their particular credit lines. Starting, perhaps, at 75%...
