美国共和党候选人洪博培（Jon Huntsman）直接提出了这一点 — — 他坚持我们应当迫使那些大银行进行分拆并因此变得更为安全稳健 — — 而其他候选人都未对此问题作出认真回应：随口说一句“我们会让它们破产”在那些大银行破产可能导致巨大破坏的情况下就是一句空话。
Jon Huntsman, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, is addressing this directly – insisting that we should force the largest banks to break up and to become safer. No other candidate for the presidency is seriously confronting this issue head-on: just saying “we’ll let them fail” is no kind of answer when the failure of megabanks would cause so much damage.
