I reckon there are banks out there doing the right things, but as a group, I just can’t feel too sorry for them.

"Regulators came under fire in the financial crisis for lax oversight that allowed financial institutions to dole out too much credit to unworthy borrowers."

Interesting how history is being (re)written, before our eyes. Banks were forced (by government regulations) to give mortgages to "unworthy borrowers".

Only 4 branches - this guy certainly qualifies as a small businessman.

This is just one of many ways how an activist Gov’t actually CAUSES income inequality - only the big boys can afford the lobbying, lawyers and compliance people. The small operators that support the middle class owners can’t survive.

“Regulators came under fire in the financial crisis for lax oversight that allowed financial institutions to dole out too much credit to unworthy borrowers. Some bank executives now complain that federal and state agencies have swung to the other extreme, poring over minute details of virtually every loan, including those to small businesses.”

Back off and let the bad eggs raise a stink, then come in harder with more control to “clean up”.

Almost sounds like a plan.
