What we a need is a New Magna Carta.

King John was justly humiliated and brought to book before the Barons of the land way back in 1215.  We gather together all the world's errant bankers at Runnymede, show them a big scroll with a big seal on it and then kick the living shit out of them.

Still very much like the idea of battle royale. And they can win a better/bigger weapon by agreeing to release all their funds. Of course, the battle would have to last longer than 24 hours.

I like where you're going, but remember that talk of scrolls an seals an such triggers a lot of knee-jerk apocalyptic thinking in the very parts of the Land of the Free Markets and the Home of the Brave Deregulations where these bankers and brokers have been permitted to hold dominion for so long.
