Professor Kane states on page 9, "With each successive recession, more benefit is extracted by too-big-to-fail institutions". I make the remark that this has been observable in Ireland also.

Is Professor Kane saying that governments will not move to change what brought about the financial crisis and the ripping off of taxpayers?
