And furthermore... If they were insolvent right now would it be announced?

Think about it....

It would be like announcing a sure hit asteroid hitting earth.

No fears though 0bama would print more money to bail them out.

Conspiracy theorists can always be spotted because they will always be driven to claim that the lack of evidence for their position is evidence of their position. It is a confession of intellectual bankruptcy. The FDIC is entirely sound. Any short term liquidity concerns anyone might have had about it were more than met, with a sledgehammer, by the $500 billion treasury pledge. Anyone still worrying over it is a fool. But in fact men aren't still worried over it. They are simply casting about for any 2x4 to slander finance with. They hate finance with a fiery passion and think it is politically expedient to smear rich men and monger their prophecies of doom.

They are utter rogues and anyone giving them the time of day is pond scum. Are we clear?

it wouldnt matter if they were technically broke or insolvent. they have a blank check from the treasury. the FDIC will not fail.
