In her book Limitarianism, researcher Ingrid Robeyns criticizes economic policies that allow businesses to profit from their successes while displacing the burden of failure onto taxpayers. As an example she cites the US financial crisis of 2008 in which dozens of institutions including JPMorgan Chase and SunTrust received a collective $700 billion of government support. Had the US government previously exercised stricter regulation of risky financial instruments, Robeyns argues, this enormous expenditure of taxpayer dollars would not have been necessary.
