Good news is they learned from that, there will be no more bail outs.
Not because they change the system. They didn't so this scam will repeat itself.
They (and our EU vazal 'leaders') decided to create a bail-in law.
Next time they can legally and instantly steal everything above a certain amount from everyone's account.

    They've been quietly bailing out banks for a while now. A notable recent one is when banks shorted silver a little while back and the price tripled instead of going down. They just learned they can't publicize it without making us serfs uppity.

    That's interesting, need to look that up. They sure kept it quiet, as I've never seen it reported on even 'alternative' media.
    They will have to tell us serfs when we inevitably get stuck with the bill.
