Today in the rich get richer

  Not necessarily. When Lloyds bailed out the Halifax in 2008 they probably thought it was a good buy, until the problems started surfacing. You're taking a fairly decent risk taking over a bank with only a weekend to do due diligence. And ultimately this needs to be sorted. The losers are the share holders of a collapsed bank. Which is as it should be. And I don't think they were poor, although they might be now.

  Yeah right - come here and whine at HN about how rich get richer without even knowing anything about the issue at hand; hoping to score some HN points.
