The housing crisis of 2008 was exacerbated by the moral hazard created by the expectation that major financial institutions would be bailed out by the government, 
Ya, that’s what they were thinking when they were overcome with greed.

Banks engaged in risky lending practices and investments…
The banks acted recklessly because the government allowed them to, thanks to deregulation and a lack of transparency in the derivatives markets.

 This insurance reduced the incentive for depositors to monitor banks' behavior, 
lol, ya, depositors are going to monitor what the banks are doing with the deposits. So before FDIC Insurance existed, how did so many people end up losing their life savings? Weren’t they monitoring the banks behavior? What a jackass.

I certainly hope you are not a substitute teacher for an economics class

What happens to reckless banks without economic interventionism? He'll what happens to most businesses that are no longer profitable?

The free market rewards responsible stewardship.

FDIC for billionaire banks.
The FDIC insures depositors, not the bankers you jackass. And the banks have to pay the FDIC for the insurance.

“The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is a United States government corporation supplying deposit insurance to depositors in American commercial banks and savings banks.[7]: 15  The FDIC was created by the Banking Act of 1933, enacted during the Great Depression to restore trust in the American banking system”

You don’t have to wonder. It’s recorded history. The bank fails. The depositors lose all their money and the country goes into a depression.

But the CATO Institute and the Heritage Foundation were created by rich people to convince stupid poor people that regulation is the problem.

Rich people don’t want regulation. They want to exploit the masses and the system for profit.

So it encourages consumers topics ethical banks that are responsible. 

Out of curiosity l. Which scenario is better

1. Evil banks are propped up by the government and their recklessness rewarded by insurance payouts 

2. Reckless and evil banks fail and consumers move to banks with ethical practices.

Better yet. Store money in crypto and remove banks from the equation. The one thing Muslims got right was banning usury

Consumers don’t have the time or the access to information that allows them to do that.

If a woman who just happens to have a penis is only attracted to women with a vagina, is that woman homosexual or heterosexual?

Things to ponder in these complex times…

Seemingly, continuing to call Trump "Hitler" post assassination attempt polls poorly in focus groups. 
As a result, the new corporate oligarch mantra is "Trump is weird"
Well genius, in case you hadn’t noticed Hitler was weird, starting with that ridiculous mustache.

Trump is weird and Hitler. But instead of a mustache he spray paints himself orange to cover his pale skin with red blotches

Trump is weird. Let's cut our dicks off and be democrats now.

Cutting our dicks off is not weird but border security is
I think what's weird is just how much of your political energy is spent thinking about other people's genitals

This is some crazy gas lighting. It's like if a murderer is on trial for murder and you point out murder is wrong and then they say "it's weird you are so obsessed with murder"

Wouldn’t someone with a high IQ make a high salary? you’ve been a minimum wage worker most of your life, right?

Crazy gaslighting? What on earth are you talking about?

Pointing out something doesn't make you obsessed with it. Pointing it out repeatedly, especially when it has no real relevance to the topic at hand is when you show yourself to be obsessed with it.

Nearly everytime you launch an attack on the left it always manages to include people's genitals. I find that very weird, nothing about that had anything to do with gaslighting.

Calling out your motives to support leftists policies is very much relevant. If you support leftist policies for other reasons, maybe because you are unaware of the economic freedom index or because you want open borders or a complete ban on guns or abortions up until the moment of birth than just state that and we can address it, but most people who support leftists policies these days are doing so for the purposes of genital mutilation of gay children. If you are the exception and you hate it because you want economic interventionism like they have in countries low on the economic freedom index like North Korea and Venezuela or if you want to ban guns like they did in Nazi Germany, we can discuss that but I thought you were a leftist due to gay stuff. The right supports gay rights and marriage so if you say you align with the left for that reason, we do know what you really mean

Aren't you a black welfare recipient voting democrat for free gibs although it harms the economy and increases the poverty levels as indicated by unrefuted studies posted by both me and grey parrot?

The study by the Bavarian Libertarians of Alabama?

Those 2 bozos from UCLA that no one has ever heard of?

Grey parrot? He too is a minimum wage worker. A substitute teacher.
