Comment on: Obituary: Ewing was archetype of Reagan-era excess
No American executive better embodied the anti-regulatory fervor and cutthroat ambitions of the 1980s than the former Ewing Oil chief You can't be for real...this was a fantasy! He never was an "American executive." or am I delusional?

Comment on: The 1 pct find a way to stimulate themselves
And pray tell what did you expect? Folks to roll over and take it? The government's coffers $5,000,000,000 heavier for more misguided crony "capitalism?" Oh I mean "investment" in ill-conceived projects? I say putting it in the hands of the private sector will have far more positive impact than giving it to clueless polticians!

Comment on: Record fine shows some banks are too big to indict
What would it profit the global banking system to destroy a 150+ year old institution? A bank with a tremendous reputation and legacy of bringing development to Asia. I don't understand it...if there was criminal intent on the part of certain individuals then they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Otherwise, we should be looking to strengthen the banks and the banking system, not cripple it!
