Easy to find the $ by skimming the pay of their stinkin' CEO's.

you miss my point. It’s easy to look at something in hindsight and say we should mandate this or that which again in hindsight might , or might not, have prevented the particular occurrence. My point is that if you look bigger picture, you need to look at actual data, and weigh costs and benefits, not just base policy on a knee jerk reaction to a single anecdote
