Very interesting. I wonder who the prominent bank is? My initial response is to shove the money down the government's throat; obviously, the CEO will take the consequences for it. However, he'll be a hero in the long run.
I think it will take 'adverse' reactions from the people to let the government know we won't allow them to bully us into this 'socialsim.'
The flip side is: could the government be concerned of the bank failing in 12-24 mos. and wants to prevent this from happening?
Great post, Singinchicken!!
