If banks run short of reserves, either the FED provides them, with regulatory strings attached , or my money and your money will not be there to pay the bills. A bank's account liabilities equal my money and yours. Since hedge funds are doing what banks do I am merely suggesting they be included in bank regulation. It may sound revolutionary but it's not.

Taxpayers? Why is it the government's responsibility to protect hedge fund investors? The only time that government intervention is appropriate is in the rare cases that the fund managers act in a fraudulent/criminal manner. Who should cover the cost of this regulation? Taxpayers?
