My only opinion is that the government should have as minimal say so as possible in how business conducts itself.One could split hairs endlessly on media bias, and (apparently, even) on the websites that define levels of bias.
But I'll stand by my assessment based on the facts and choice of outlet that provided the related information. And most importantly, my argument that regulations work. If you feel differently, I'm all ears.
Humans aren't perfect entities, so maybe some regulation is a good backstop to prevent 'disaster'. However it should not and cannot be a default security blanket in lieu of appropriate management and responsibility.
Maybe the roll back of regulation was a factor in the bank ultimately failing, but it was not the cause and I'd rather the political and public spheres bemoan the millionaire morons who led it down that path and take a few pieces out of them instead of a defunct President for cheap political points or anyone else who decided to tweak regulations. If I had money in that bank I would not be bitching about Trump, his name isn't on the door at SVB HQ. And I would not be bitching because it's not (again my personal opinion) the governments responsibility to do the job 'we' pay other people millions of dollars to do.
But, as usual, people are sheep. "Trump man bad!!"
Ex fired SVB exec? Takes his millions and moves to Bahamas. "Ooops"
Le sigh.
