But they are not too big to fail and being backstopped by the taxpayer, at least not as much.

Your money is at risk no matter where you keep it.  Even in your mattress.

I've been doing what he's suggesting for a couple of years now.  I actually don't use banks, except for transactional needs (paying bills).  I keep very low balances and pay cash for everything.
I have a net30 rule for myself with any form of credit.  It is amazing how much you save when you aren't paying the tax of interest!
