“What’s robbing a bank to founding one?” asks Mack the Knife at the end of The Threepenny Opera. And indeed, now we know that the deeds of Mack the Knife and his gangster mates are nothing compared to what the real sharks, the bankers and top executives do day after day. While the bank robber empties the safe only once, the bank itself keeps robbing the people again and again.
