Kevin Drum reports that Barack Obama told bank CEOs:
My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.
There are worse fates than pitchforks.

The RBC – and I’m confident I also speak for my fellow bloggers here – does not endorse this suggestion, at least unless the economy gets considerably worse. Cubicle-reared investment banker is not healthy eating: there are unsafe levels of residues of toxic derivatives, testosterone, and recreational drugs.
However, six months of free-range activity and a diet of acorns would purge these, improve banker muscle tone and transform the fat into healthy monounsaturated oleic acid.
