“After Widespread Reckless Banking, Dearth of Prosecutions”

It’s more than likely that you caused this wreck
By schemes like selling what you knew was dreck.
And ordinary folks have paid the cost:
Their homes are gone, their livelihoods are lost.
But friends on high have guaranteed the onus
Is not on you. Relax. Pick up your bonus.
