"lend to people who can afford to borrow.” That why there is always money for people who do not need loans.

People who can afford to borrow usually don't need loans.

Therefore capital piling up -as the last round of hogging is showing- only find people who cannot afford to borrow.

Lesson is: Seek as wide as possible people who can afford to borrow. Which in its turn mean. Learn how the world really is out there. Get rid of home country bias and foreign countries' prejudices

Note that they missed the industrial revolution. Good for them, but very low risk is maybe not so good for society.

Society might be better sered by a distribution of risk profiles for banks, and about every 10-15 years, a certain small percentage that went overboard on telecom or oil or fiber optics or whatever would go broke.
