If people complain about the welfare ethic at the bottom of society, what of the failure ethic at the top?

I don't think there's any shortage of people who criticize corporate irresponsibility. There's just a difference in how people think it should be approached. Broadly speaking, one side thinks you can regulate it away while the other side thinks that corporations need to be allowed to fail.

I'm not against corporations being allowed to fail, i just feel that those hundreds of millions that are given to the CEOs jumping off the sinking ship should be stripped from them and given to the employees as a mass severance package

All i wish is for the excesses of capitalism to be reshuffled so that no-one has to suffer, since i acknowledge the real advantages of capitalism unlike many people who are otherwise as far left-wing as i am
