Tell me if I have this right in my head...
We lend the banks money (from our taxes) via the .gov so they won’t go belly-up. Too many of them do, and FDIC might go belly-up. So, the .gov wants the banks who haven’t gone belly-up to take our savings (which we already paid taxes on) and give it to FDIC, so they can bail out more belly-up banks?
Who is being reamed wrongfully here?
As of Friday August 14, 2009, FDIC is Bankrupt

I had to read what you said twice...
At first read I thought naaah that’s not how it is but on second read. Yes, it is, accept they take our checking -and- savings accounts.
But this would cause utter choas so they HAVE to honor the FDIC limit in all our accounts. Besides... they only like to take our money only once a year on April 15th. So bottom line the government will take total control of all banks and maybe roll them into this bank
It’s the largest shell game in history.
Does this mean that bankers can fire the CEO of the Federal Government? Fair’s fair, after all.
Good catch,,,
Sure seems like Bankrupt fits...
I DO like the way you think!
I wouldnt trust her to be a town dogcatcher, let alone, running the FDIC.
I took all mine out to buy alcohol.
I am about to do the same, Mad Tom.
That’s about all we thinking people can do if Obama is going to imitate the Soviet Union. Join them in the vodka consumption so we don’t have to think about it any more.
Yep. A Liberty safe with the highest fire-rating we could afford.
We paid off every debt we had, house included, then put the rest in the safe.
We also bought a little gold & silver last year....and some bullets and toilet paper. :)
..”you get to do alot of target practice and wont need to buy toilet paper for awhile.”
And who can say we’re not positive about the Obombmination?
“..pow, pow, . . wipe, wipe!”
I just spewed a diet coke all over my computer screen....LMAO!!!!!!!
The left’s answer to failed policies is the same failed policies. Heck, they don’t even come with new failed policies.
Denninger has a pretty good take on this one:

More and more insanity. WHEN will it stop, and what will it take to stop these blatantly unconstitutional “solutions” to a mess the gov’t CREATED in the first place by forcing banks to MAKE the bad loans!
Robbing Peter, to pay Paul, and John Q. Public gets the bill in more ways than one!
