The Fed just repealed Glass-Steagall. It now permits commerical banks to lend to broker dealers, BofA's deposit base can now support MER. It's all the Fed anyways.

It's also interesting to note the Glass-Steagall Act created the FDIC.

To put it another way, the Fed just changed the law to allow taxpayers to support the investment banks. FDIC-insured deposits will now be used to support investment bank's assets.
