Banks are big because people's money is forced in by monetary supply inflation; it loses value when they actually save it.
Banks are crap because of regulation in a forced market: You basically have to put your money in a bank to counteract inflation, but becoming a bank is VERY difficult, so is competing with ones which will always be bailed out.
U.S. has the same issue with healthcare. Becoming a healthcare provider in the U.S. is incredibly difficult, even moreso becoming a healthcare insurer, and as such they consolidate and crapify as far as they can without making it bad enough to justify competing with them despite the regulatory barriers. Then all your drugs have to be FDA approved(which takes more than a decade at least), and many of them will be produced under one or more patents which also raise the cost of the medication.
