It takes quite a lot for me to feel sorry for wealthy people who have incurred financial losses. This qualifies.Of course, its almost certainly going to mean trickle - or gush - down losses for people of more modest means.
It reminds us, as if we needed to hear it again, that people who manipulate numbers for a living are capable of truly evil, life-destroying actions far in excess of those who merely use a gun, or even a bomb. Unwatched, unchecked, these people can destroy broad sectors of our society.
Tar and feathers, anyone?
