The Bitcoin genesis block literally contains the message:

> The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks

I would've thought the implication was kind of obvious? And I'm not sure why you mention Dodd-Frank -- there were many bailouts throughout 2007-2010 and the point of Dodd-Frank was to put an end to that scheme.
