imo its the fact that we're so reliant on 3-4 big banks as opposed to 100 banks. if it were more decentralized, US could afford less regulation and just let companies succeed/fail on their own. can't do that in the current climate

I don't think it would look the way you imagine. There are lots of computer software vendors, but if you wiped out Apple, Microsoft and a few core Linux contributors, you'd pretty much wreck the computer world, even for people who directly use other vendors. The existence of smaller players does not negate the influence of the larger ones.
