This is really starting to bother me. These giant financial institutions make tons of money by taking RISKS. When things go well they make lots of money, people get big bonuses and the rest of society gets to read about "Talented Bankers and Their $50mil Bonuses" on the latest cover of Forbes. When things don't go well, the government gives them a loan to bail them out or else our economy will collapse. What choice do we have?
I don't know the answer here, but I don't like this.
At least in Venture Capital and startups, we understand that risk is risky, and we take the good with the bad.
