Remember in the 1980's and 90's when so many banks collapsed, and the US government bailed them out to the tune of over 150 billion dollars?
A lot was done to protect against such a thing happening again.
Sounds like Trump's undoing all that. Lets see who the big winners are if we see something similar during Trump's presidency.
