3. In a couple of years..

.. these folks are going to need armed guards to go out in public, and a fortified defense perimeter around their domiciles.

8. Not going to happen.

As history is witness, nobody who has USD 100 million in his or her pocket goes to jail. Especially in the Bush-tainted America of today.

5. If an average worker failed at their job

they would have been fired and not eligable for workers comp.

These Fat cats failed so miserably and they are rewarded for failing. It's insane....

6. This kind of stuf really enrages me ...

First - HOW can anyone make that much money? How can there be that much money ANYWHERE, when regular people are starving or homeless..? That much money could shelter or train and clothe or feed SO many...

Second - HOW can anyone make that much money when they FAIL....not to mention Lie Cheat & Steal!?

Third - WHY can't the fed or anyone else in regulating TAKE IT BACK?

ugh...The class warfare mentality in me says to just camp out on their collective upsale lawns until they give the money to charity or back to the feds...

7. Actually they could if they wanted to.

They could prosecute them under the RICO law and take every thing they own.
But that law was made to prosecute organized crime but as far as I know the only people that have had it applied to them are suspected drug dealers, or just anyone that is carrying a lot of cash...in this law it assumes that the money has committed a crime and because money does not have rights it is considered guilty until proven Innocent. And the only way you can get it back is to go through a long legal battle to prove that the money is Innocent.
