Interesting article. However, the article is inaccurate
in its speculation that bank depositors will end
up paying the bill for the follies of big investment banks.
Under current law that is simply not possible.
=================
Not directly as depositors, but indirectly as
taxpayers/savers, e. g. TARP, FRB Q.E. depressing yields,
etc. Indeed, there is an ongoing TBTF "subsidy." All honest
taxpayers are "on the hook"...
