Is it just me or does anybody else think that companies should be forcibly dissolved when they are caught stealing?

I've been wondering about all the lawyers in the USA. 50% of the lawyers IN THE WORLD are in the US. A lot of them don't have much business, especially moreso as the economy implodes.
Why don't 500 out-of-work lawyers band together and seek a massive class-action suit against the banks? What do they have to lose, really? Why the heck hasn't this happened yet?
The entire judicial system is asleep at the wheel. The founding fathers gave us a balance of power that involves three branches. We've heard a lot from Congress and the Executive branch but barely a peep from the entire judicial system (not just the suprime court). This should be a field day for the lawyers and judges. There have been so many in-your-face crimes committed that it should be like shooting fish in a barrel for these people. Instead...total silence. I don't get it.
