In a properly regulated world, everyone would have some sort of personal insurance for counterparty risk. You pay $x per year and the government never steps in.

FDIC is a moral hazard in my opinion. The only thing the government should do is let people with low incomes claim their money back in advance so that they can pay their bills.
