That's a confusing response. Are you advocating for government bailouts for chaebols and US banks?


Of course not! But im saying even without bailouts the banking system already is a collusion with government. Private banks take loans of money from the central bank at very low rates then add 2+% on top and provide those loans to consumers.


Not exactly, the reality will sound even more annoying to you: banks don't need even need to get a central bank loan for most dollars they loan to customers. Only a fraction needs to be covered by central bank money.
