Bank of America has managed to step into the kimchee several times over the past couple of months, an achievement that only warms the hearts of crisis communications professionals. First came the abortive settlement of $10 billion or so in put-back claims by some large investors. The State of New York and anyone else paying attention intervened.

This is different
This can mean massive inflation, as in hyperinflation which is how Hitler got into power
It can also mean no more cash money, only credit card and debit transactions with big brother seeing it all and keeping all transactions in some echelon server

if BofA files a chapter 11 and we all know FDIC is already bankrupt then what happens?
It's scary to think what will be happening but one thing is for sure
Something is most definately happening, I think the clock has been pulled for a switch to be switched on earlier than anticipated as there are people who are starting to wake up.

If you have cash or investments with them you had better get them out. This move only signals they are in trouble, and the FDIC cannot handle that large of a loss.

If they can't run a business well enough without having to be bailed out TWICE, then they need to fail. Obviously they didn't learn their lessons the first time.
And hyperinflation would not come from the bank failing, it would come from the Govt printing or creating an assload of more money for the banks CEOs to bathe in.

Buffett invests $5bn
The bank has sold 50,000 preferred shares to Buffet at price of $ 100,000 each.
Buffet, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, has also been given warrants to buy 700 million common shares of the bank at a price of $ 7.14 each over the next 10 years if the “BAC” shares rise.
