Trust me, I do not rely on the government, I make a good salary and have investments but I don't trust big business to look out for me, I pay enough to the government that they damn well better do something for me!

No one, no thing is perfect... but any entity that is trying to make money for itself isn't making the money for my benefit (i.e.:banks, businesses, etc.).

My current bank is USAA, for military families, I love it, I trust it and I would never ever have an account at a big bank. I left my law enforcement credit union for USAA and I have absolutely no fear that I will lose my money because of them.

ARyan, when I hear that business doesn't like governmental oversight, I want governmental oversight... maybe I need to look a little deeper before having that knee-jerk reaction.
