I want to see infinitely harsher punishments for white collar crime, financial sector especially. If a crooked banker or financial advisor swindles $10m and destroys a dozen lives by doing so, instead of fining them a pittance forcing them to spend the rest of their lives behind bars will make some think twice.
As for the big 4 banks themselves, we all know the despicable power they wield over our political system. They should never have been allowed to grow so large in the first place, and should be forcibly broken up into smaller entities by the government. The same applies to other 'too big to fail' businesses like the supermarket duopoly who ruthlessly exploit their market clout. Some should also be nationalized to give the public a government-owned alternative, and privatization of all essential services including transport should be revoked as it has proven to be a disaster for taxpayers.
Obviously none of this will happen while the cancer of Neoliberalism still infects our society but its nice to dream.
