Just because a company is big doesn't mean they are working in the best way, or working in a way that is to the best benefit of the public. Might does not make right. We don't let large architectural engineering firms get away with doing whatever the hell they want just because they should have a proprietary interest in doing the best job possible, and we shouldn't be letting banks do it, either.
Yes, it's hard. Boo hoo. So is making safe cars. But you don't get the option to take the easy way out. Solve the hard problem, it's the job.
