Are Republicans against FDIC?

I normally don't even bother to start topics but this stuck out to me when watching the debate last night.  Kasich was asked about what he'd do in regard to depositors if a bank ended up becoming insolvent.  He said that they should be able to separate the people who can handle it from the smaller ones who can't.  Then the crowd booed. 

I'm confused.  It's a bad thing for FDIC to exist?  People used to have such little trust in banks because they worried their money wasn't really secure.  If I misunderstand the topic, I more than welcome someone to educate me as to why I'm wrong.  I kind of figured this was a bipartisan thing people agreed on.

Not sure if you've being serious or sarcastic with this, but kasich remark was both pointless and completely irrelevant. The question was addressed as bailouts for banks and he attached it to the indivually wealthy vs. Not. Deposit insurance has nothing to do with the corporate side. He needs to get off the stage.

Why doesn't Kasich who worked for years as a senior executive at Lehman Brothers ....  not know,, that FDIC backs up every depositor - to $250,000 .?.. If you have accounts at two different banks, the insurance limits apply at each bank individually..

Gov. Kasich's comment on banks going under and small depositors losing their life savings only guarantees the stage will be smaller next debate....
