In my view, Mr. Bernanke is essentially a criminal (yet to be recognized) in that he aided and abetted one of the great swindles of any one's time, namely the banker bailouts. The failed (and still insolvent institutions) should have been folded up and their constituent parts sold off to smaller healthy institutions.<br /><br />We know what Bernanke delivered instead.
