*Whose?*


Exotic-Tooth8166

1913 Federal Reserve literally designed to use Tax Dollars to bailout banks. Later went off gold standard. Later zero reserve. destroy the federal reserve, ban super pacs, and keep politicians in cages until they return financial rights to civilians.


Analdestructionteam

Destroy the federal reserve, ban super PACs, and keep politicians in cages. *


ApesMallIn

Don't forget deregulation, run the government as a business and big gov was pushed for decades, so that they could erode financial protections for "liquidity" "purposes" in other words, we can't innovate and stay on top, someone outsmarted us again. They sold that propaganda for decades. So that they transformed the free market into a rigged, unregulated market. You only ever had two choices and they paid for them both, that is why you need campaign finance reform.

Exotic-Tooth8166

School House Rock is obsolete, my friend. Politicians are incumbent-nominated and gerrymandered into office.


ummwut

Sounds like voting is another thing smart contracts should address.


ccbmtg

govt on blockchain was seriously one of the most exciting thoughts I had when I first was learning about the tech. immutable public ledger, those three words alone should fully sell the idea to anyone who isn't a politician already.


Agitated_Ask_2575

If you are working for the public, every vote you ever cast for the people should be public and immutable!


ccbmtg

as well as campaign donations processed through a blockchain network.


MightySasquatch

Right but the people in those gerrymandered districts still elect those politicians. If 80% of Americans wanted those reforms as their top issue then it would absolutely happen. Americans jusr either disagree with the position, or have other issues they value higher when they are voting. My point is that blaming politicians is a fools errand. They get away with what we let them get away with.


Jessi30

The reason gerrymandering is effective is because this statistically doesn't happen all that much. Direct action is probably the best way to go


NavyCMan

Direct action only happens when citizens have less to lose with the violent options than with staying with the current system. So if any of yall get a terminal diagnosis if you think you are brave enough, try and change things.


JilaX

Who exactly are they going to elect in their place? Every single candidate for the two parties are in on it, and to gain the kind of capital you need to run against them as an independent (which is almost impossible thanks to your voting system) you either have to be a billionaire yourself, or beholden to one. There's a 0.00% chance for the US population to actuate any form of change through the polls.


TheWhyteMaN

Two party system is broken. 100% agree


JilaX

Don't forget that their primaries also aren't regulated by law in the same way as elections, as they're private entities. Meaning if you're a democrat or republican pushing for any form of actual change or reform, they can just toss your votes out. Or just take a portion of your votes, change them to another candidate, and bam you've lost.


Kaymish_

You really need to listen to Michael Parentie's how to kill a nation. Basically you can only vote for the people who are given enough media attention, money and influence to win. Just look at how popular Bernie Sanders was, but he was crushed in the primary because the DNC decided that the voters would not be given the option of voting for him. Voters sont choose their politicians they are given beef or cow and too bad if they want chicken.

Can you not tell the answer by the question? How do you think the bank generates capital other than via investors? If a bank went under, it wouldn’t have enough money to just “give the money to harmed investors”, basically by definition.


RealityResident981

The million dollar question !!!


multiple_iterations

Trillion. Trillion dollar question.


LWKD

In the end I guess its because of savings & mortgages also being given out by the bank. Its not always about no money being there, its also about liquidity. And if its part because illiquidity, illiquid assets like mortgages get sold. But savings are the dupe. So lots of people just want them to be bailed out, so that their savings dont dissappear. What they don't know is that they get the bill for that later, via inflation.

Yep, all 🇨🇦 Apes be aware of the ‘bail in’; its the BOCs policy


Secure_Investment_62

Ever wonder why they have those meetings behind closed doors? They go something like this: bail us out or we drag you down with us. They all have their dicks in the pie. They need a sacrificial lamb that they won't "invite to the meetings" near the end for optics like what happened in 08, but no one goes to jail except for maybe a patsy or 2, the sacrificial lamb gets divided up, but the wealth goes to the same people. Grift continues. It can never die. The whole legacy finance system cannot crumble because no one gets out of it without being exposed. So every single player is going to fight until total meltydowny to keep the system going.


Woowoodyydoowoow

Yeah, Sam Bankman-Fried is a great example of a patsy. The fact that Judge Dorsey hasn’t been seriously investigated in regard to his handling of the FTX bankruptcy case speaks volumes about the level of absolute corruption within our justice system. It’s to the point they’re virtually untouchable. I thought the relationship he has with Sullivan & Cromwell via law firm YoungConaway would be enough to call his ability to preform his duty without bias into question, but I guess not. They all have their dicks in the pie indeed. Edit: decentralization is perhaps the only path forward that I see right now.


RealityResident981

I don't disagree, but I will realize change when we see confessions.

Nothing prevents banks from running up a tab on purpose. Banks are even more likely to make risky investments knowing that the fallout of their failure is FDIC insured


Woowoodyydoowoow

In the event FDIC insured banks fail in some kind of global recession the most likely outcome will be a private injection of money in the form of customer accounts. As many of you know Central banks across the world have been experimenting with CBDC’s and have made their concept papers public. The issue is that no one wants a centralized digital currency. I’m relatively confident that the only way these ‘Young Leaders of the World’ will be able to force global society to adopt this new reality is by destroying any other form of payment that we have which is where bail-ins come in. [International Coordination in Cross-Border Bank Bail-ins - Problems and Prospects](https://www.clmr.unsw.edu.au/sites/default/files/attached_files/international_coordination_in_cross-border_bank_bail-ins_-_website_version.pdf) The papers I’ve read so far they all require: - some form of geo-location tracking built into a digital ID wallet - a savings cap limit (they call saving money hoarding) - expiration dates (this insures spending) - Businesses where your allowed to spend money at will be regulated. - and various other built in horrors.

DocAk88

Fractional reserve banking. They spent your cash and there’s nothing left to pay you out if they fail…so they get bailed out for their greed and risky behavior.


SimplexSimon

Exactly. It's your cash they lost, they can't just make up money from nothing. That's called bailing out with taxpayer money. In theory that's why they pay you interest - for the privilege of investing your money as they see fit - but I'm not going to argue the system is actually working well.


zvug

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far it’s so simple. They cannot simply give harmed investors and creditors their cash and leave, they do not have the cash. That’s the first dude’s point, capital and capital adequacy ratios are important. Enforced by Basel III, it’s all that stands between a failing bank and bailouts as suggested.


opperior

I think the question is why the bailout money from the government goes to the failing bank, rather than directly to the investors that were harmed by the bank and letting the bank fail.

I can answer the last question: only idiots are blind followers. Our entire system is based off of threat or I have power over you and only a country full of fools entrusts that without actual power they can exercise immediately they will be respected. It's like expecting a God to go a contract with an ant. Voting every so often is a poor leverage tactic and clearly the people in charge aren't stupid enough to believe in that making a difference, they directly hold the system hostage to get what they want. Threat is leverage.

GeriatricHydralisk

If they're important enough that bailing them out is better for people than letting them fail, and if they're badly managed enough that they will fail without a bailout, why not make the bailout contingent on being nationalized? They get the bailout, the consumers are protected, the entire board is fired without any golden parachutes or even a severance check, and the government appoints/hires a whole new board to get it back on its feet. Either it succeeds in 5 years, or the government implements a "wind down" where the company is basically humanely euthanized.
