Don't be such a myopic rube.

A small handful of banks in the US who WERE being ruined by government policies that encouraged wrecklessness. 'Greed' had nothing to do with it.

Further, no bank is 'too big to fail' (or go into receivership). That is a political decision made by politicians the foolish electorate has chosen.

MOST banks in the US are doing pretty well and it's up to you to keep an eye on your bank and not just put the blinders on.

I prefer the Canadian way of banking any day. I don’t see any derivatives or CMOs up there. If they have them then it is very small
