This is why we need Full Reserve Banking instead of this horribly corrupt fractional reserve banking These geniuses are patting themselves on the back for recapitalizing banks that should have had 100 reserve requirements thus avoiding the crisis in the first place Comment from : Clementine 321

So instead of having the damage done fast (and mostly to the banks) over 2 years - they transferred that damage (all of ot) to the little people to pay for over 10brbrI think it's time we show those people how big a price they'll pay for it - every last lump of flesh involved from finance to media to civil service to intelligence - slaughter them all Comment from : 6

Bunch of communists in the comments lmao Money is a necessity for society no matter how fragile of a thing it is It’s the people who doubt money that cause it to fail If you believe in money, if you have trust in banks, the economy won’t collapse After the Great Depression, Roosevelt closed the banks for an audit because he knew people would start to trust them and use them again The only way to keep banks and the economy stable is to use them It’s that simple Comment from : Rhyne

Who paid for the curry? the tax payer again no doubt you bunch of shysters Comment from : David Fortune

"save the economy" more like hand the entire thing to a hadfull of bankers, at the very moment they were on there knees And I only just found out watching this that the cheaky ****s daired to try and hagle over the deal Comment from : owenbevt3

It was a good idea to bail them out at the contingency of shareholding (wayyyy better than the US), but I still hate the smugness the BBC (an officer of the gov) presents this with House prices and living costs shot up and many executives walked away (or stepped down) with large bonuses nonetheless It was America's fault, but the British government should've kept an eye on what faulty American products the British banks were investing in Institutions that were meant to serve the people failed them; it was the middle to lower class that suffered through no fault of their own Comment from : Taresh Patel
