If you like markets, then you shouldn't agree with the fact that the government can effectively be held hostage every decade or so due to "too big to fail." My definition of not working here isn't about some people getting unfairly rich at the expense of others. Literally people won't be able to get basic stuff at all. Entire supply chains will collapse since they are based on credit. You can't buy and sell at scale - these all involve contracts and payments. Credit isn't just about lending money for interest.
