It's more a demonstration that their house was always built on other people's largesse, and at the whim of those who hold the real power in the system (the money to invest) their opportunities can evaporate. A bank run doesn't happen without individuals deciding to go bearish and concluding that their own big-money dreams are really worth more than whether strangers they haven't met get a paycheck tomorrow.
