> I am not defending SVB executives.

But you're blaming the federal government for something the executives did voluntarily!

Please don't change the argument. I didn't say anything about depositors in my response.

The federal government did not cause this. SVB executives did.

It's only fair, because I didn't say anything about executives in my original comment.

Please don't make strawman arguments.

Don't be silly, please. There's no strawman here. You accused the federal government as causing something that SVB executives did voluntarily. It makes sense to point that it was they who caused their problems, not the government.

Your arguments seem to be motivated by ideology, as opposed to facts and reasoning, so this will be my last comment on this sub-thread. Goodbye.

I am only calling out your strawman. If you want to pick up your toys and go home because of that, good.
