Too much bridge playing at Bear's den

And there were complaints.

Take a deep breath and read this in the WSJ about the executive level at Bear Stearns.

And then there's this one reporting that in 2005 Bear Stearns gave out bonuses of $2.6 billion, or roughly 10 times what the whole company went for in the weekend fire sale.

Anyone for reasonable regulation of this "industry?"
