  • You shut your fucking mouth about the FDIC. They are 100% industry funded, they supported Americans through the financial crisis so none of them lost a dime from failing banks, they effectively regulate a large number of banks to remediate financial stress before it results in a loss, and they have never taken a dime of taxpayer money.

    And they don’t need to hold 100% of the cash in banks, do you hear yourself with how stupid that is? They model how much cash they need from premiums to hold in reserve and they are very effective at it. Also, if losses increase they can levy a special premium on banks to shore up their liquidity position like they did in the financial crisis.

    The FDIC actually has a podcast series about how they managed the financial crisis in case you want to educate your ignorant ass. I taught a whole segment in it when I taught Commercial Banking.
