voluntarily hold reserves - in your prior post, I understood your position to be that you believe their reserves are inadequate. I don't see the elimination of the fed/fed govt as doing anything other than lowering their reserve %.
Furthermore, banks park $ in treasuries and other government securities. Repudiating the federal government would break every bank in the country.
No fed/no fdic and I sure wouldn't put much $ in a bank.
