Good banks bitter over bailout

Moral of the story, it pays to screw up if you're "too big to fail".  Of course if you don't screw up and you're not too big to fail, you get screwed. Something like 80% of small businesses fail within 5 years, but no one bails them out.

The actual moral of the story is not to force big banks to give subprime loans.  These banks failed because they were bullied by the federal government into practicing poor banking.

"Offered financial incentives" is not bullying. Blame is on all sides.

Exactly, no one forced the banks to be stupid. Not to say that some borrowers aren't to blame too, but the banks can stop trying to blame other people.
