There might not have been criminal activity per se (although that's highly debatable), but at what point does doing a disservice to society constitute a social crime.

I just keep coming back to the philosophy that EVERYONE should have lived by before 2008 - Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.
Well that's all nice and cute, but it's completely disconnected from reality. Social crime? Seriously? Why wouldn't banks be all too happy to continue as long as they were making the bucks? That's their job!!
