Legalised Stealing

So it is okay for bankers in some banks to lose the company mega £'s plunge the world into crisis yet no one has gone to jail.
Daily businesses go bankrupt and steal from people they owe money to and set up a new company straight away.
Worse are businesses like Portsmouth football club who owed so much they have said we will pay you 20p in every £1 owed. Effectively stealing 80% of their debt. No penalty for company bosses, share holders etc. and they are just able to carry on trading!

When is a government going to stop these acts of theft.
