"Performance" like being connected to the hip of big government where they get near free interest money and loan it out to their own countrymen at 20+ %.

Performance like, having banker politicians creating policies with OUR government to benefit themselves here and in foreign markets where they can't loose. How do these cockroaches deserve bonuses when they are allowed to write government policy to put themselves at the head of the line above everyone else?

These people are monsters

When the markets dipped, most bankers lost their bonuses for that year.

Everyone on the planet does this whether it's Real Estate, Insurance, Construction, Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants, Unions or Big Business. Bankers don't have the corner marketed on having legislation passed to benefit their interests.

I can remember when Ebay was getting hot and the auctioneer association in my state wanted it banned. LOL

When the markets dipped, the majority of American's lost, while the cockroach banksters reaped the whirlwind from their disastrous policies. Through the 2008 crisis, all the big banks connected to the hip of our government came out with profits and with some record profits.


Care to show me which of the Too Big To Fail Bank TOP CEO's not only got less of a bonus, but went home with reductions in compensation like many American's?

Where is the risk vs reward when these cockroaches are connected to the hip with government?

This does not make it right.
They clearly do not believe in free market capitalism then if they want to sell themselves to the government to put themselves at the head of the line especially when they have their butt buddies in the government to accommodate them. May the worst disaster befall them and their families.

CEOs are a very very small portion of people who work for banks. CEOs probably had negotiated contracts that yielded them favorable payouts. They're CEOs after-all. But the vast majority of bankers had minimal or no bonuses at all. We're talking about thousands of people working for those banks.

Yes, in 2008 Americans lost money. In the subsequent years they made the money back and more. The only people who chose to miss the market's recovery by pulling out.

That's funny. Your saying the CEO is a small portion of the people that make up the banks, as if they are of little consequence. So how can they justify outrageous bonuses if they are just another small piece of the puzzle and are not the head mover and skaker?


Nevertheless, here is one example of a "mover and shaker"

Choice of Mary Jo White to Head SEC Puts Fox In Charge of Hen House | Matt Taibbi | Rolling Stone

Here is Mack of Morgan Stanley being referred to in an insider trading scandal.
"Mack is busting my chops to give him a piece of the action"

Sounds like a bunch of cockroach Bankster Thugs that need to be exterminated!
