    Yet, the FDIC will only protect the average depositor to $250,000.

    I’ll do you one better than that. After banks started failing in 2008 from the real estate crash and poor derivative bets associated with it, the Office of the Comptroller of Currency required banks to disclose their derivative holdings. In the latest report Chase has $3.31 Trillion in assets and $54.3 Trillion in derivatives bets. That’s more than 16-to-1. We’ve got a lot of fragility in our banking system.

    Too bad Santander isn’t on that list. That is one bank that definitely needs to burn!
