So if I and many other people use $10,000 plus margin to buy and hold internet stocks, or whatever is hot at the moment, the brokerage firms are protected?

If we didn't have a "mass failure" in the last year, it's likely we won't. I am very skeptical that, all of the sudden, after decades of margin lending, the brokerages need protection.

IMO, there is another motive.
