Credit doesn't help

If you need $80B before your 10Y bonds mature and borrow it today, you're paying minimum 4% interest. By the time your $80B in bonds mature you owe $118B

If you're saying it doesn't matter to FDIC because they can get "free" credit, that's equivalent to a bail out

I don’t think there’s any doubt the depositors and clients of the bank are being bailed out.
