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?

Fear of contagion.

Personally , I think too big to fail is a problem that Washington lacks the will to tackle and it only gets worse.
