Answer to Question 1

The safety net protects good banks from being abandoned by uninformed depositors, so banks can continue to channel funds. The safety net means that bad banks need not worry that depositors will become aware of or care about risky practices, so the incentive to remain prudent is weakened (moral hazard).
