Why can't they just switch to smaller local banks for loans?

Greed possibly... Larger banks, more money?

Or because most of the small local banks got bought up by the big national banks.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Well for instance, here in Colorado we have a local bank called 1stbank that is doing quite well. You'd think that all the companies who get their capital from Chase, ect would be transferring.

No.  Smaller banks get much of their loans from larger banks.  Therefor, no smaller banks.

I think http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzJmTCYmo9g is all we really need to know.

"Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was 'Oh no, not again'. Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias had thought that, we would know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now." - HHGTG, Douglas Adams
