I would have loved to have agreed with your statement, but from what I have learned in the past year, we truly would have had a massive financial ruin as a country if that had been allowed.

So then the real problem is that we have allowed the existence of "too big to be allowed to fail" institutions.  Admittedly they are not monopolies, but they seem to violate the essential idea of the anti-trust laws.
