Why did companies get bailouts during the 2008 global financial crash?

Didn’t some of these companies cause the crash? Or at least help it. Feels kind of unfair that they get off scot-free.

What would have happened if the government didn’t bail them out? Would we ever recover?

I think the proper question is why weren’t any companies/people held accountable. Capitalism on the way up and socialism on the way down.
