DNSSEC doesn't protect your bank account. Your bank uses TLS to establish connections with you, and TLS is authenticated, and does not rely on the DNS when establishing connections.

DNSSEC is in fact controlled by world governments, who have de facto authority over the most important TLDs. When a CA misbehaves, Google and Mozilla can revoke them, as they've done with some of the largest and most popular CAs. You can't revoke .COM or .IO.
