Cmv: if a firm is too big to fail and gets bailed out, its leaders should be executed:
The actual leaders of bailed-out firms should be killed by lethal injection, not figureheads or sacrificial lambs. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out who called the shots, even if they've since quit. 

The moral hazard created by bailouts is that business leaders get to keep the profits while the costs of a crash are borne by the public. That encourages them to take big risks at our expense. Adding the personal risk of death should correct this problem.

This would also help balance out inequity in the application of the law. Right now the sword of justice comes down on the poor more than the rich.

I don't like the death penalty in general because I don't think it works as a deterrent; people who commit foolish crimes aren't foresightful enough to be thinking about the consequences. But corporate leaders probably ARE.

They will think twice before sinking the airship and bailing out with a golden parachute, because they will land on Lady Liberty's sword.
