Banking Sector: Band-Aids Just Won't Do It

I totally agree with the author here. Our society today is being destroyed by the utter lack of accountability and responsibility for its own actions. Investors that get burned here have options.
The government can bail out bad mortgage holders but the CEO's of banks and brokerages are getting away with murder. All the profits and bonuses that have been paid out under this system of unregulated greed infested system only line the pockets of a few at the top. The rest lose their jobs, their homes ,their life savings etc.
How do you lose BILLIONS of dollars, then get a bonus to leave the company.??? New CEO's come in to FIX the problem while thousands of hard working employees are laid off for short term savings.? How does this system work any better? Wipe out the common holders (AND TAKE AWAY THESE GOLDEN PARACHUTES) and start over
