Hey the new aristocracy, our mega-corp managers, always come out on top. Witness the massive bonuses {one of nearly 50million} paid last year to CEO's of our major investment banks. Will these guys give back any of these perks now that the scams were exposed and these firms got caught with their pants down, piling up huge losses which endanger the firms very survival. No way, as the taxpayers come to the rescue since they're too big to fall, and you can be sure the chief honcho will engineer a platimum parachute if he needs it. So not to worry,the aristocrats of Wall Strreet can still enjoy the niceties of life. around Central Park.
