[quote=sdduuuude]Yes, we should make it illegal for anyone to loan anyone else any money unless it is the government doing the loaning or borrowing. That’ll fix everything. Brilliant[/quote]
You’re missing the point.
It’s entirely good if people want to loan money to others. The problem lies in them expecting the taxpayers to bail them out if their risky lending practices result in defaluts.
If they want us (taxpayers) to take the risks, then ONLY the taxpayers should get the rewards.
If they want all the rewards, let them take 100% of the risks.
