What do Americans think of banks? According to this Huffpo article commenting on a Gallop poll, not much:

According to a new poll by Gallup, 36 percent of Americans now say they have “very little” or “no” confidence in U.S. banks, the highest percentage on record since Gallup first started tracking that data. Those saying they have a “great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in banks has also stagnated, stuck at 23 percent for the second straight year, after falling to a low of 22 percent in 2009.
