Brahma Bull Bankers

You can't be a master of the universe without unmitigated audacity. The current generation of "Brahma bull" bankers, especially in light of the recent meltdown they precipitated, make John D. "Competition is a Sin" Rockefeller look like Henry Thoreau. They have boldly resorted to blatant "trickle up" economic practices of robbing the poor to fund the ever-richer rich. Meanwhile, the federal government is dangerously close to becoming nothing more than a tool of capitalistic excess rather than a safeguard against it. Now is the time for rigorous regulation of what has become a much too powerful economic beast. It's time to rope and ride, not hope and slide.
