Right, the promise of capitalism is free choice, perfect information, costless-frictionless transactions leading to the best products and services at the best prices. Obviously capitalism is not what we have in the US of A as we get crummy product (management) at exorbitant prices (433 times the wage of an average worker).

Therefore, we need to get rid of the anti-capitalist Republikans (crony socialists) and replace them with true capitalists. That would give us nationalized health care (most efficient overhead with risk spread out over the maximum number of people and overall widespread benefits to society) and a management payscale reflective of performance.

This would mean the CEOs of the big three would be paying their companies several millions instead of getting paid. The head of Lehman would get more than a punch to the head by an irate employee in the company gym, he would be an indentured servant to the shareholders for the rest of his life. I don't know what would happen to the idiots at AIG. They and their families would probably be in hock for about 10 generations.
