The news today that Barclays CEO Bob Diamond has resigned has been greeted in many areas with unbridled euphoria. Those who blame “greedy bankers” for the current crisis are rubbing their hands in glee.
They may, however, be missing the point. All the talk about a culture of greed and lax morals is no more than politicians & moralist’s hot air.
