    makes total sense. Dump all this toxic risk onto banks Too Big To Fail. The ideal counterparty with unlimited solvency guarantees.

    Remember good bank/bad bank? The good bank is rescued and their bad loans are put into a bad bank.

    The largest banks in the US are all bad banks. Unfortunately, it's moral hazard ad infinitum. Shocking how this has continued even through this year after the credit crunch started August 2007. But it makes sense because the Fed will never allow these banks to fail so why not pile it on?
