Banks (and bankers) were still making ALOT of money even during this period with 'abnormally low margins'. Banks are government supported essential services and giant profits from this sector are parasitic on society and the rest of the economy. People hate taxes sure, but being charged an overdraft fee because a bank algorithm withdrew funds for your bills before depositing funds from your paycheque is something people also hate.
