This, in turn, resulted in the US Federal Bank injecting a large amount of capital into financial markets.

8 Solution of financial crises
As long as banks are able to create money, we will have financial crisis after financial crisis. Unless we change the system very radically right now, the next years will be very miserable for everyone. The solution is remarkably simple – so simple that most economists overlook it. We need to: a) make it illegal (and impossible) for the banks to create money, and b) give the responsibility for creating money back to the state (through the Bank of England, under strict controls to prevent abuse) Doing this – and doing it soon – is the key to escaping from this recession without further tax hikes, further redundancies, further bankruptcies, and further unnecessary misery.
