In a perfect world they would be held accountable. Obviously we live in a different world. Our world rewards these people with unfathomable riches rather than punishing them.

I'm not talking about being held responsible by the justice system, I'm talking about personal responsibility, or blame. Do you blame investors for knowingly investing with morally questionable businesses?
