      The public largely had no savings in the big banks to withdraw (or any other banks for that matter). But she's right about the rest of it. I learned the moral hazard issue in the army, when I saw malingering and other misbehavior so routinely accepted there was no point in trying to do better or be prepared, and I'm afraid this in endemic in govt. So I think civil service is really no antidote for corruption. While the bailouts were subsidized by the govt, they were also by the Fed, and the Fed shares the bank's Ponzi philosophy. Liquidity, or cash flow, is not really the issue; the viability of the basic business is, and little has been done to face it. And as long as the money says legal tender for all debts public and private on it, they can continue like Japan to put off facing things for quite long time.
