The job currently is to figure out how best to restore a connection between homebuyers and capital markets in a manner that deals with the problems of the old arrangement (Bernanke, 2008).

Additionally, governments have put into place huge economic stimulus plans, by borrowing and spending to counterbalance the decline in private sector demand (U.S. Congress passes stimulus plan, 2009).
