We might finally see criminal charges against the banks for the rape of the world's financial system.

This was given as an excuse for not charging the banks up until now.
John Hueston, a former Enron Task Force prosecutor, told Bloomberg, “Prosecutors… rarely indict large institutions because of the potential widespread collateral damage to uninvolved employees and investors in the form of lost jobs and shareholder value.”
So, if you attempt to rob a bank and get caught, they can't put you in jail because it will impact your wife and kids. The consequences outweigh the law.

Same reason our Government hasn't been indicted although we have thousands of criminals involved in running it that are indicted ever year. Indictments are for individuals with names, not institutions.

Everyone found guilty of a crime does not go to jail, retard.

You can fine corporations. You can put them on probation.
And most importantly, you can give them the death penalty.

You sure live in a bubble, for you're information that already happens. Here's a good example of businesses forced to meet safety standards for women or given the death penalty for failing to do so.
