Never been there, so I can't really say.  The bull statue is pretty cool, though.

There can be a thriving Wall Street and a thriving Main Street at the same time. My opinion of Wall Street is based on how well the government regulates them.

There are a number of fine firms on Wall Street, and some firms run by slimebags.

We should deal appropriately with the malfeasers (keep Guantanamo open for the Wall Street Wastrels where the CIA could be given unlimited means to "question"  the subjects, and not attack the innocent.

Depends on how you define "Wall Street".

I like the cancer analogy because it reminds us that we are a social animal - society is that animal, and we are just the cells.  Is the owning class a cancer?  I guess so, in a way, as they certainly eat up the other cells. 

Anyway, the problem is a lot more pervasive than just 'Wall Street', though that locale showcases particularly blatant bloodsuckers.

Approve cause a street in the middle of Manhattan must be cool in general. In all seroiusness I approve of Wall Street in general, that doesn't mean I agree or approve of all there decisions and actions though.

Not a bad idea. I'm sure there are a lot of people who want to see Bernie Madoff waterboarded.

I don't mind the idea of Wall Street, I just hate most of the people on it.

a series of casino tables - in other words, the inevitable eventual devolution of a freeish market
