Steaua

Steaua is the most titled football team in Romania.

In 2014, Steaua disappeared, following a court decision in favour of CSA. The name, badge, colors and stadium now belong to CSA Steaua Bucureşti, who will play its first season in the 4th league of Romania (2017-18).

Meanwhile, the old team, owned by Gigi Becali, is now called FCSB, and they changed their badge, keeping the same colors and using the largest stadium in Romania, Naţional Arena, after spending some time playing away from Bucharest, in Piteşti.

As of 2016, 49% of Romanians are Steaua fans. Therefore, they are renowned for having many, but stupid fans. Gigi Becali mentioned once that 90% of the gipsies are Steaua fans. Furthermore, 55% of people living in the countryside consider theirselves Steaua fans. Steaua fans are considered "result fans" by their rivals, because of the fact that their stadium is empty when they don't play important matches. There was a famous scene when "pufuleţi" were put on seats in order to attract people to the stadium.

Their ultras are considered inferior to Dinamo and Rapid, their main rivals. They have made some major mistakes, as lifting a Dinamo's message in their kop at a home match against Dinamo, and also receiving money from sponsors in order to make a choreography.

"Citizens" continue to be FCSB fans (FCSB owns the history from 2003 until present), while Steaua ultras (excepting a couple of Peluza Nord groups) are CSA fans (which owns the history from 1947 to 2003).

Glass-Steagall

Act passed in 1933 which regulated banking. Named for Sen. Carter Glass (D-VA) and Rep. Henry Steagall (D-AL 3rd). Also known as the Banking Act of 1933. Motivated by the Great Depression and one of the pillars of the New Deal.

Glass-Steagall prohibited commercial banks from engaging in underwriting securities, i.e., banks that accepted deposits and loaned money at interest were not allowed to issue bonds or new public offerings of stocks. The Act also authorized the creation of deposit insurance.

The Banking Act of '33 was strengthened in 1956 when bank holding companies were barred from the insurance business.

Between 1982 and 1999, banks were deregulated until the same corporation could take deposits, create credit, borrow from the Federal Reserve, underwrite stocks and bonds, operate a hedge fund, and sell insurance.
Glass-Steagall was repealed in stages between 1982 and 1999.

In 1990, the largest bank in the USA--CitiBank--held assets of $369.1 (2009 dollars); by 2009, it held over 5x that. Bank of America is now 13.24 times its size in 1990. The repeal of Glass-Steagall undeniably worsened our problem with banks that were too big to fail.
