Let’s just forget who sets the bank rules and audits them.

That depends on the price elasticity each bank has regarding its products and services, doesn’t it? In any case that’s still better than government diktat determining who pays, i.e., taxpayers. Hmm…

That's true for tax increases, too. And that was my point. The notion that the costs associated with this bailout will be borne by only shareholders is folly.
