QUOTE Washington Mutual Bank, the country's largest savings and loan, was seized late today by federal regulators and immediately sold to JPMorgan Chase & Co., the New York banking giant that has long coveted the thrift's California and Florida branches. With assets of $307 billion and deposits of $188 billion, Washington Mutual is the largest bank to fail in U.S. history. and the hits just keep on coming. -------------------- |

I guess no one else was surprised by how many new random banks popped up in the past 5 years because of all the shitty ass false lending. And now they're all dying.
