Few of us here "hate" finance, or big banks for that matter.
Likely the reason this article is upvoted is that it truly boggles the mind that after years and years of blantant fraud and rigging there is yet one banker to go to jail and instead the politicians, judiciary, regulators and central bankers happily cover for, or even join in on the manipulation and rigging.
If markets were to be un-rigged and allowed to function, banks were to stop getting hand-outs and fraud started to be persecuted, this would only be a good thing for 99.9% of people involved in the finance industry.
Maybe this knee-jerk "anti-finance" climate you speak of would even disappear.
