Make a good investment? Keep the asset, keep the profits. Make a bad investment? We'll buy it for what you paid for it.

Ain't it great to be a friend of the government shitbricks?

Most important, the banking system is part of U.S. Government because USG has already chosen to accept its liabilities—by guaranteeing them. When A guarantees B’s liabilities, B needs to be on A’s balance sheet. This is accounting 101, folks.

They won't though, that would be them "serving us", which they don't do.

We have all of the downsides of that and none of the upside.
