That's the twofold strategy of 1) fear 2) life-long enslavement of people through indebtment
People are told that if "the banks ar left to fall", it will be the Doom, everything will fall apart. The Apocalypsis. So don't even dare to imagine it ;-)
People are tied to the system through mortgages and loans, not due involving in random irresponsible pleasures, but due to their need to cover their basic necessity - accommodation, education for children and, in the US propably also the medical care. That makes them very conformist.
