Of course you do.

But we are assessing and apportioning blame in this financial crisis. In this case, banks were the cause. People got caught up in their schemes. People who went bankrupt are paying a huge price but the people who were responsibile (really, really responsible) were people at the top of the banking totem pole. They basically are not suffering.

Blaming the pawns in this situation is misplaced, big time.
