At the end of the day or at the end of this "crisis" what percentage of "banks" will have failed? I don't know (I will look it up later), but I bet less than 1%. Then if we compare that percentage to the S&L crisis in the 80's or the Depression, I bet the current percentage will be trivial compared to those events. So, like I posted the emperical evidence does not support the premise held by Krugman.
