OK, I have figured it out. We have a lottery to see who gets to shoot the fuckers on Wall Street. They decided they won’t be paying “bonuses” they will be paying retention “awards”. I’m in for $100.
Do we have to shoot to kill? I’m thinking a knee, elbow, or shoulder would be more fitting. Why give them the easy way out?
Oh, and of course they only get to use the same health plan as the lowest-echelon employee at heir company.
Shooting knees shoulders etc. would keep personal injury lawyers tied up for years.
OTOH keeping lawyers tied up for years might be a good thing 
Put me down for a ticket. Can we charge the family for the bullet? (not that it’s a deal-breaker or anything).
At first I thought that $100 was way too low. One must charge for the pleasure of shooting those fuckers, after all. Then it dawned on me – The people most affected by the downturn probably can’t afford that.
Damn, don’t charge $100. Charge a quarter. You’ll get more takers that way.
I’m like 5% serious here 
Maybe the Romans had it right…Maybe what should be done is some random subset of the bastards should be scourged and crucified and put on up Wall Street to die. After a couple of days when they do die keep them there until they rot off.
Probably won’t accomplish anything and is a violation of the Constitution…but it would send a message.
What’s wrong with lions and tigers? In fact, I prefer gladiator fights.
Why can’t it be both?
Lions and tigers for a bear market?
Oh my.
I’m pretty sure you just won the thread.
That’s bull!
Dear Mr. President;
If you give me $789 Billion dollars, I promise to buy 10 of everything in the world, thus reviving the economy on a universal scale.
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely;
Mince
Oops; Doc Oc beat me to the (obvious) punchline.
Shooting them seems too final. And who has $100 to spare? I say sell tickets to whack them in the nads with a baseball bat for $5 each. Bonus: if you need more stimulus, they’re still around so you can sell tickets again.
What if instead of shooting them we made them take the total amount of their bonuses, convert it to cash, stuff it in their clothes, and then lift them a few feet in the air on a rope, and then give all of the people in the city a big stick? It is like a grown-up version of a pinata!
Fine. I think the scourging and crucifying is a better option but if you want gladiator fights then so be it…we can have both.
I think there should be dunking booths…filled with acid.
I like the way you think.
Hmmmmm…
I’m a traditionalist myself - you know - tried and true stuff…but your idea has some potential.
I am intrigued by your ideas and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
Also, put me down for $500 in tickets to that event. I know a lot of people who wield sticks for fun, and who are suffering the hit from the economic downturn.
