The CEO also contributed to the 6th-largest bank failure in U.S. history, and cost Americans 2,000 jobs as a result of the scheme. Oh, and they also tried to cash in on $500 of government funds from the TARP — although they ultimately failed.
Liberty and justice for all.

My name is Aaron Rathbun, and I'm a graduate student in philosophical theology at Yale Divinity School. Husband and father of three, my chief interests are postsecular political theology, critical theory, postfoundationalist epistemology and hermeneutics. My hope is to serve the Church, to best be "in this world, but not of it." 
In the courtroom of honor, the judge pounded his gavel
To show that all’s equal and that the courts are on the level
And that the strings in the books ain’t pulled and persuaded
And that even the nobles get properly handled
Once that the cops have chased after and caught ’em
And that the ladder of law has no top and no bottom
Stared at the person who killed for no reason
Who just happened to be feelin’ that way without warnin’
And he spoke through his cloak, most deep and distinguished
And handed out strongly, for penalty and repentance
William Zanzinger with a six-month sentence
Oh, but you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears
Bury the rag deep in your face
For now’s the time for your tears
(It’s better sung)
The one consolation is this homeless man might be better cared for in prison (I say might be).
I’m unfamiliar with that song, thanks for sharing it. And yeah, I know what you mean — at least he’ll have consistent meals, shelter, and medical care in prison, as awful as that is.
Bob Dylan!
Thanks;but most interested in Christological quests especially of hypostatic union of the second person of the Trinity. God bless your endaevours.
