In 2008, Goldman mastered the art of crony capitalism: pay up for government protection & get bailed out when you need it most. Silicon Valley is now practicing a diet version of the same game. https://t.co/RrFQ1xWs4J — PolitiTweet.org

The deeper problem is that the Fed has been trying to play God for too long, except with a fat finger. As President I’ll put the Fed back in its place: focus exclusively on making the dollar a stable unit of measurement. Period. That’s the 1st pillar to unlocking GDP growth. https://t.co/tIeSNHNhp1 — PolitiTweet.org

@ianbremmer The rules were that FDIC deposit insurance covers up to $250k in losses. They changed the rules after the fact to save the likes of companies that banked over $400mm with SVB (which is egregious). If you change the rules to selectively save market actors, that’s plainly a bailout — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

The question of how to treat SVB uninsured depositors & how to prevent a run on other banks are two separate questions. But there’s a lot of self-interested folks in Silicon Valley trying to conflate the two. https://t.co/IQ4llPZUVV — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to raise the FDIC deposit insurance limit above $250k, then do it prospectively for *all* Americans. Don’t retroactively change rules on the fly after, especially for SVB which itself lobbied for years for loose risk limits claiming it wasn’t “systemically important.” https://t.co/bPq7L0Az4M — PolitiTweet.org

You can only be an outsider once. I will do what the other GOP candidates appear afraid to even say. End affirmative action. Abandon the climate cult. Use military force to secure the border and annihilate the drug cartels. Much more. https://t.co/y9phKzF81F — PolitiTweet.org

The idea that the bailout was to “help the workers” at tech startups is bogus. Venture investors could easily infuse *fresh equity capital* to make up for any balance-sheet losses. Yes, that involves painful equity dilution for founders and VCs. But that doesn’t justify a bailout — PolitiTweet.org

Puppet master now applauding the puppet. You spent all weekend stoking bank run fears in America to justify a bailout. SVB argued for lower risk limits because it supposedly wasn’t “systemically important.” Now you argue the opposite. Pathetic hypocrisy. But congrats. It worked. — PolitiTweet.org
