strawman arguments. should a bad policy not be changed because it's been a bad policy for a long time?

Your opinion is all well and good but that's a strawman argument. Snap benefits don't account for working life. It's just an arbitrary age regardless of your situation that's not consistent with Medicare or any other government program. And this bill refers to able-bodied people. If your back...

CSFB is too big to fail in that the counterparty risk and depositors will be protected. the equity is not too big to fail and these situations the equity and the company are two different things.

No way that option was bought 2 years ago.

Of course the bank knew their pvbp. This is like finance 101. Just because theDawn doesn’t understand interest rates, or vol, or stocks, doesn’t mean that no one else does.

From what i heard, they weren't allowed to hedge. You can't hedge available for sale or held to maturity securities per accounting rules.
